I use them to great advantage as an engineering manager. If you have programming skills, you can use these tools to whip stuff up significantly faster than people without programming skills. It’s an organizational super power. I just replaced an internal web app used for planning with a data visualization tool dashboard that can spit out a spreadsheet for further analysis. Took a week to build something that solves the business problem better than several months of effort put into the web app did. I didn’t have to deal with auth, security and privacy reviews, building a custom UI that people would have to learn, learning data source API’s, or build/deployment.
