Conventional software development requires you to manually write code to create applications. In most cases, the tools used for this are very basic. While many of them do let you visually design screen UIs, adding logic to these screens, creating more complex elements like APIs or batch processes, writing deployment scripts, etc can only be done by highly skilled and experienced software developers with in-depth knowledge of multiple programming languages and various aspects related to IT infrastructure.
No-Code brings a radical change to this approach. While Low-Code significantly moves a large chunk of development activities to a visual approach, some elements still need manual coding. Over time, this manually written code becomes “legacy code” that will be even more difficult to maintain or modernize. With No-Code, you can create complex Cloud-native applications – from start to end – visually, without having to write any code manually or bother with a confusing array of editors and other tools. This not only speeds up development but also accelerates deployment and optimizes the entire post-delivery maintenance process.
A true no-code platform will give you all the tools required to design rich user interfaces, create complex logic and deploy applications through a purely visual approach that can be executed by even business users or developers with lower skill levels, without being concerned about specific programming languages.
