No-code apps are popping up left and right in my company(OutSystems). They universally suck. Performance is horrible. UI is horrible. Development is actually slower than it used to be. We are hiring no-code devs which are more expensive than other devs because they are hot on the market. non-devs can't no-code just like they can't code, who would have thought. The no-code tooling is so primitive, every kind of troubleshooting takes forever, besides it requires access that normal people can't have as they would torpedo the no-code of other people's teams. It turns out coding was never the problem. Troubleshooting is. Analysis is. Integration is. Consensus building is. Repeatable testing is. Long term maintenance is. Just typing out the code is the fastest part of development, and it makes no sense to optimize it if you don't address the real time eaters. Basically, the core lessons we got from the 1980's still apply, and people are still throwing money to every snake oil salesman promising a silver bullet. This time it will work for real.
