Why Codeless Software Is Doomed to Fail
I gave up at:<p>"If this trend holds, and it seems like it does, pretty soon even a regular high school kid should be able to build the next Netflix using nothing more than an easy "click and drag" interface.
This is the promise low-code platforms are built on."<p>I work for a low-code software platform company and at least as far as we're concerned, I cannot scream "NOT EVEN CLOSE" loudly enough.<p>We're for building _business applications at scale_. Not Netflix, or the next great TODO app startup for teams, or any of that. Not the same ballpark, not even the same sport.<p>We're for building your companys HR app. Or an app to help Legal. Or an app to help field CSRs do front-line support. Line-of-business apps.<p>Maybe some of them are promising this "drag and drop your way to netflix" thing. I know we aren't, nor are any of our competitors in the low-code space.
