Honestly, this isn't the reason. The reason for the nocode movement is that businesses are sick of constantly trying to find technology talent for big salaries, and want to DIY. I cast no judgement on whether that's going to be a disaster or not, or for whom.
- maltenuhn 5y agoBusiness cost savings are a huge pull factor, for sure (if you counted all the Excel spreadsheet "apps" as software, some old school companies would be in the top 100 apps by usage, easy :) I also wouldn't underestimate the push factor from the creative folks who are technical enough to "read" code / reason in abstract patterns, but can't write it. Fun definitely comes into that, as does a learning curve that's very shallow and near-infinite.
