> In the past decade, the growth in low-code and no-code solutions... The articles then shows that it is far from a "past decade" thing. Low-code, no-code, RAD, or whatever you want to call it has always been a thing. Code is an obscure thing to the uninitiated, and it costs a lot of money to hire the initiated. So of course people want to make it more accessible. Today is nothing new, if anything, it tends to go the other way: people are getting more comfortable with code. And the article explains it very well, in fact, it is one of the best overview I've seen. It takes about Excel, the most successful "low-code" platform, UML, which is mostly a failure, and modern takes like Copilot which offer guidance but do not try to hide the code. The conclusion however seems to be "I don't know", told in a particularly convoluted way in entire chapters. I think the article would have been better if it didn't try to predict the future.
