They are already. I consult for a lot of hyper-early-stage YC startups as they formulate their plans and I've had two separate clients in the past 6 months go the no-code route to build their MVP. At first I was against it, but having seen these clients go through it I would say it is much cheaper and less risky and gives developers an extremely good blueprint for when the founders inevitably decide to go beyond the MVP stage and build their own codebase. No-code platforms are a great way for non-technical (and even technical!) founders to do that hard product work of figuring out what they actually want their app to do and how each screen should work. Things like figma let you do this too, but I find founders will often make something in figma with logic holes or missing flows if they aren't thinking like an engineer. The no-code platforms force you to make these decisions because you'll notice the holes the moment you go to use the app instead of noticing them when your developers go to implement something that doesn't make sense. Much cheaper way to do early iteration.
