A brief introduction into no-code development

No-code in a nutshell

introduction

Build apps without writing code.

No code refers to a type of software development that allows people to build, customize, and deploy applications, websites, and other digital solutions without writing code.

With visual interfaces, drag-and-drop tools, and pre-built templates the development process is simplified so it's accessible to non-technical users.

The goal of no-code is to reduce the need for technical expertise and streamline the creation of digital solutions. Empowering business users to automate their work, without having to learn how to code.
Everyone a developer?

Citizen developers

Empowering non-technical users to build custom solutions
The term "citizen developer" originated from the idea of empowering citizens to take charge of their own digital solutions, without having to rely on IT departments or professional developers.

One of the key advantages of citizen development is that it allows businesses and organizations to tap into the creativity and problem-solving skills of their own employees.
Platforms

The amount of no-code platforms is increasing almost daily.

Microsoft, Google, SAP, Amazon, they all are investing in no-code.
There are a range of no-code platforms available, but not all are suitable for larger organisations. Check our

IT and citizen developers

Professional - and citizen developers complement each other.

Leverage the skills of both.
An advantage of citizen development is that it reduces the dependence on IT departments, freeing them up to focus on more complex and critical projects.

Keep in mind, though, that citizen development is not a replacement for professional development. It's a complementary approach that allows you to leverage the skills and expertise of both.

The future of coding...

Gartner predicts that by 2025 more than half of the business applications in enterprise environments will be built with no-code / low-code.

It's not all roses and sunshine though, to make it work you need to set it up right. Read about the challenges of no-code and how or overcome them.
