I think the Lego analogy is perfect, actually. When I think about the evolution of Legos from my childhood to that of my own child, it's a journey of ever-increasing specialization. My Legos were pretty basic, with maybe a wing shape or two (space Legos, anyone?) or a cockpit.
For my son, it seems like each kit is mostly custom shapes, or at least shapes so specific that I spend more time looking for the "right piece" than just building something close enough out of a much more limited set of things.
Low/no code feels the same way. I can do a lot of things with them, but it's never exactly what I want. Perhaps the real issue is with what I want, but I suspect that I'm not alone.
- breadchris 4y agoI’m really looking forward to when I can show my kids what Legos are. I don’t remember many of numerous plastic toys i had growing up, but i remember the things that were built well. Wooden blocks, a box with a variety of metal latches, and of course legos. People know a good thing when they see it and feel it, regardless of age. I am really fortunate I didn’t have to deal with Megablocks lol
