What is low-code?

Low code is the buzz phrase in the world of technology in recent months and years which is why we have created this blog post to outline the key features of a low code solution and the benefits.

 

Low code is a software development approach that allows teams to create digital solutions and enterprise applications with minimal coding requirements. This method elevates coding from textual to visual, using a model-driven, drag-and-drop interface.



Key Features of Low-Code Development

  • Visual Development Environment: Low-code platforms provide intuitive graphical tools and drag-and-drop capabilities, making it easier for users to design and create applications.

  • Pre-built Components: These platforms offer a suite of tools, custom code components, and boilerplate scripts that users can leverage to develop applications efficiently.

  • Minimal Coding: While some basic coding skills may be required, low-code significantly reduces the need for extensive code writing and script testing

 

Benefits of Low-Code Development

  1. Faster Innovation: Low-code enables subject-matter experts and citizen developers to take the lead on application development, accelerating innovation and product development lifecycles.

  2. Increased Agility: Businesses can respond quickly to market changes by assigning product development to business users, speeding up application delivery.

  3. Cost Savings: By allowing business users to develop applications, professional developers can focus on more complex, value-adding tasks.

  4. Improved Collaboration: The simplicity and speed of low-code development facilitate collaboration across business teams and between business and IT departments.

  5. Simpler Maintenance: Applications built with low-code techniques are generally easier to maintain and update compared to traditionally coded applications.
