This ignores the fact that each "line of code" in a "no code" app does significantly more than 1 line of code. The benefit of no code tools is that they solve the very problem you're claiming stops them being useful.
- reilly3000 5y agoOk replace LOC with ‘Steps’. Its domain complexity, data types, relations, state, and the network that makes all of this hard. No-code doesn’t solve for big problems, but it sure does work for integration and the next million CRUD apps that fit highly specific niches. Somebody who can write clever excel formulas can pick up a no code tool and be productive on day 1. That doesn’t mean they can go from there to writing an operating system - there is higher and lower abstractions that need to be considered, which comes from both experiences and the concepts they mature coding languages expose you to.
- onion2k 5y agoI don't think anyone is suggesting people will make operating systems in a no code app. They're designed to make building CRUD apps easy. The thing is though ... CRUD apps are 90% of the dev industry (by dev headcount, not revenue).
