In recent years, no-code development and low-code development have become hot topics. No-code development allows users to quickly build applications like building blocks without writing code, while low-code allows developers to quickly build applications by writing a small amount of code. These two methods have gradually developed and can support the rapid development of enterprise-level application construction.
No-code development and low-code development are new things. Many people who are not familiar with them often confuse the two. In fact, there are many differences between the two:
1. The target audience for codeless development is wider. Not only professional developers can use this product, but also enterprise operators and frontline business personnel. For professional programmers with rich programming knowledge, using this platform can increase development efficiency more than ten times that of the past. And other business people who don't understand programming or even SQL can use this platform. Compared with the 10 million programmers, there are hundreds of millions of people who don't understand programming, and this group is even larger. Therefore, the prospect of codeless development is also better.
Low-code development is aimed at programmers. It provides a way to design applications by dragging and dropping components. Programmers only need to write a small amount of code for components to complete application development. Using this development method, compared with traditional development, can greatly improve the development efficiency and greatly improve the efficiency and accuracy of software development.
2. The efficiency of no-code development is three to five times higher than that of low-code development methods, which is 10 to 30 times more efficient than traditional development methods. The feature of low threshold for no-code development allows developers to focus on data and business process design without having to consider the underlying things of the program. Using the no-code development platform, developers create some forms, and then organize them to complete the application development. Add another set of templates to achieve a personalized interface. No-code development platform can help companies quickly keep up with changes in business needs.
The low-code development platform is not as efficient as the no-code development method, but it can increase the efficiency by 3-5 times compared with the traditional development method. Low-code development is mainly achieved by programmers using standard components to drag and drop and write a small amount of code to solve the problem of development efficiency.
The development of everything has a process from quantitative change to qualitative change. Quantitative change is the quantitative change of things, which changes in quantity and degree. Qualitative change is a fundamental change in things. Over the years, people's programming and development methods have been constantly evolving. The change from low-code development to no-code development is precisely the quantitative accumulation in the field of software development that has reached a qualitative breakthrough.
Using traditional methods to develop software has always been a very complicated task, and it requires the cooperation of engineers proficient in programming. Various problems are often encountered in the development process, such as long development time, high cost, and many bugs. The demand side often changes because of internal and external changes, leading to continuous changes in learning costs, rising maintenance costs, and later low-code development methods. This method frees programmers from heavy coding work, and can develop applications every time a small amount of code is required. The time saved can be used to do more important work, such as spending more time on demand analysis and functional module design. Such changes have helped programmers reduce their burdens and have already made programmers cheer.
But in fact, in addition to professional programmers, many business personnel and managers who do not understand programming also want to build the management system they need, but they are already very busy at work. It is difficult to spend time to learn programming from scratch, and the cycle is very high. long. Later, we had a revolutionary development method of no-code development, which completely changed people's understanding of programming. Many non-professionals are also involved in program development, helping ordinary people realize their dream of building applications. This is a complete subversive revolution to traditional software development methods, and a leap from quantitative change to qualitative change.
