Introduction to No-Code

No-Code/Low-Code have become major buzzwords in the application development space. If you are just beginning to consider a no-code approach for your organization, it may be difficult to determine where and how to get started. How do you look beyond the surface information and the hyper-technical jargon and actually figure out whether no-code will work for your needs, and if yes, which would be the right platform to choose?

No-Code is a radical approach towards application development, especially in the Enterprise space. The right platform can dramatically transform your business and give you a clear path towards exponential customer success.

What is No-Code?

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.

By 2025, 70% of new applications developed by enterprises will use low‑code or no‑code technologies, up from less than 25% in 2020.

"We are using SOVA to build a supply chain management system that will be deployed across all our locations in Japan. It took us just a few days to create the prototype and the team has made tremendous progress with the actual development as well taking a fraction of the time we had initially anticipated. Not only are we going to use SOVA for other use cases within our company, we would also be happy to recommend SOVA to other companies looking for an enterprise no-code platform."
