Low Code for Pro Coders
Low-code app development is here, and thanks to the rise of work from home (WFH) over the past couple of years, it is here to stay. As business users cheered for the rise of low code, the groans of IT departments and their full-stack engineers, whom we’ll call “pro coders” for this article, rattled the walls.
Low-code app development is not the silver bullet that marks the end of full-stack engineering and traditional IT, but it can be the shiny new tool you want everyone to use. Before using a low-code app platform, you should understand its limits and the best use-case scenarios for it.
If a low-code app platform does these things for you the way you want — or even if it only does 90% of what you want, but does it nine times faster and you do the last 10% manually — then those building blocks are no longer your problem.
