I'm the co-founder of Budibase, an open-source low code platform, and 70% of our signups (30,000) are from IT. Low code abstracts a lot of the coding effort, but it's still inherently complex to build applications.

Coding is only one part of the puzzle. For us, it's more about speeding up the dev process for IT profs and removing the repetitive, grunt work.
Low code, against what some people may think, does have its place - CRUD apps, customer portals, internal tools. But let's not get ahead of ourselves. Low code platform creators are doing the industry damage by promising their tools can provide the world and more. This is not the way to earn trust or respect, and thankfully Budibase does not follow this path.
Fun comic strip that is sort of relevant:
