The low code examples listed are not code. They are forms that essentially pull data from a database and display it with little if any interaction, validation, and/or processing. These tools have been available for decades.
- dahart 5y agoRight, and this is exactly what the author was referring to and claiming has never worked. The claim by the author included all “no code” platforms, so both sides of the line you’re splitting. MS Access certainly is a coding environment though, enough so that there’s some debate over whether it’s “low code” or not. It comes with a programming language and APIs. Same goes for something like GameMaker. Perhaps by definition low-code and no-code platforms are typically quite domain specific. And lots of no code platforms grow into low code over time to evolve into adding more control but not get so technical that they need people with CS degrees.
