foreword
Recently, I don't want to study programming, I just want to focus on business logic implementation. As a new and efficient development model, low/no-code development has received strong attention from the industry. Gartner predicts that by 2025, 70% of new application development will be enabled by low-code and no-code tool platforms. I remembered that I had used low-code platforms such as ivx and Jiandaoyun to develop, but they were not mature at that time. So, I went to explore the low/no-code platform again, and I really found a treasure of no-code software development platform- smardaten no-code software development platform , and the community version is free and commercially available. Let me share with you how to build a simple application through visual modeling tools and configuration.
1. A brief introduction to smardaten
smardaten is the industry's first data-driven enterprise-level no-code software platform. Itprovides efficient application building capabilities for development, business, and delivery teams, helping users build complex and diverse digital applications. At the same time, smardaten is data-driven, and has one-stop global data resource management and intelligent analysis and visualization capabilities at the bottom of the platform. It does not need to develop a separate data platform to realize the unification of data and business. It can be said thatsmardatenhas diversified capabilities such as no-code construction, low-code open integration, intelligent BI, and data center.
The community link is provided on s3.smardaten.com ~ You can see on the homepage that the community section is still very rich, but what I am most interested in is the big words "out of the box". Let's verify it, is it bragging? If you don't brag, you can download the community version to develop a commercially available software system, commonly known as "wool wool"!
2. Create an application based on smardaten
When creating an application, you can choose either a web application or a mobile application on this platform. No wonder smardaten said that they specialize in enterprise-level applications, which can be called a family bucket service! Not much to say, let me show you my first experience with the application building process.
1. Create a cool big screen
Step 1. Click [ Data Large Screen ] to enter the Data Large Screen page, and click [Add Large Screen] to create a large screen
Step 2. Select the system preset template, here you can design the large screen by yourself, or create it with a template. Still, I'd like to see how templates work.
- Of course, you can also choose a good-looking and easy-to-use large-screen template through its app store http://appstore.sdata1010.cn/, and import it directly after downloading.
- After importing, you can quickly create a large screen by selecting the template, which is very convenient. In the past, the front-end wrote codes.
Step 3. The large screen created by the template can be used after fine-tuning. Come on, fine-tune it~
- Supplement components and materials to make the big screen richer and more three-dimensional
- Adjust the layout and style of components to be more in line with business scenarios
- Replace chart data, business data is more real
After doing this, I already feel that some UI students may lose their jobs...
2. Create an application that coexists between web and mobile
Step 1. Select the application type of web+mobile.
Step 2. Select a form here to design the data report, switch the configuration status of the web and mobile terminals, and the components can be adapted to the mobile terminal.
Step 3. Provides a wealth of mobile components for scene design. Here, kol needs to design a scene to configure a simple application. It mainly reflects the characteristics of one-end configuration, multi-end use, simple and quick use.
Step 4. Look at the final effect of the web and mobile pages
I have designed a page to add student information, and the preview effect on the web side is as follows.
The effect of the mobile preview is as follows
3. Features and advantages of smardaten
1. Easy to operate and quick to use
- The office-style operation page greatly reduces the user's understanding cost, and can quickly get started with designing applications and large screens.
- Component triplet configuration: style, data, interaction, easy for users to understand, and can quickly adjust component parameters.
- WYSIWYG design page, reducing the frequency of adjustment, it is simply "design is development"!
2. Roundtable development, double the efficiency
- Function: Annotation function in review mode, breaking the communication gap.
- Concept: Because of round-table development, zero-loss information transmission, and non-traditional waterfall development process, development time is greatly saved
- Conflict detection, multi-module version prompts, and enhanced collaboration efficiency.
3. Graphic layout, drag and drop to take effect
- Logical processing operators are graphically arranged to solve complex logic processing at the front and back ends.
- Graphical arrangement of data processing operators to solve data cleaning processing.
4. Comprehensive comparison of low code-free products
1) Focus on BPM native low-code-free products.
Paisi Clickpaas, Putaocheng, and Yanhuang Yingdong focus on BPM native low-code products. In the early stage, they mainly focus on business flow BPM and implement it in a "model-driven" way. Since the models of each industry are very different, they generally focus on some industries to extract industry models and accumulate relatively rich solutions and model libraries.
2) Focus on BPM application software and reduce code-free products,
represented by Pan.Wei e-builder, Ming.Yuan, Meng.Chuangshuangyang, which focus on BPM application software and reduce code products. The previous positioning was "application software + solution". In the past few years, with the rise of the low-code trend, the public capabilities accumulated for many years have been precipitated and released as low-code products, hoping to improve the adaptability of existing software products.
However, the common pain points of these two types of products are: only business flow, no data life cycle management, data intelligent modeling and calculation, which will actually bring more data islands, which will eventually lead to unsustainability. Because, only when the data and application of the codeless development business process are integrated, can there be continuous construction and development.
Smardaten, which is positioned as a data-driven enterprise-level code-free platform, emphasizes "integration of data and application" to realize the code-free construction of enterprise-level applications driven by data. While providing BPM, smardaten also provides comprehensive integrated data solutions throughout the entire data life cycle, from data standards, integration exchange, asset management, visualization, and BI analysis, to realize the integration of data and applications.
——This is what differentiates Shurui Data from other low-code and no-code products. Therefore, Shurui Data is more like a "big data and AI company".
3) Low-code and no-code products that focus on data analysis,
represented by Fanruan FineBI, PowerBi, Yonghong, tableau, etc., focus on low-code and no-code products that focus on data analysis. In the early stage, they mainly focused on data reporting, analysis or BI. relatively mature. Some companies also have other products to support the realization of BPM. But in such a case, it is necessary to purchase additional software to realize BPM, and to integrate and connect with BI products. However, different products will adopt different technical systems, so the connection and integration between products will become a large project, and there will be a very large hidden cost investment.
As mentioned earlier, smardaten emphasizes the integration of data and use, integrating data production and data utilization, providing code-free application software development and data analysis capabilities. At the bottom layer is a product that realizes the integration of different technologies and integration of data and applications.
4) Comprehensive low-code and no-code products,
represented by Huawei Appcube+Roma, Yonyou, Kingdee, etc., are more suitable for large-scale enterprises, with high complexity and difficulty in implementation. The threshold for enterprise applications is high. Compared with Huawei, Kingdee and other products, smardaten is more flexible and lightweight, has a lower threshold, is not difficult to use, and is very easy to use.
4. Experience Summary
The smardaten code-free platform gives me the feeling that the overall function is really powerful. But the operation is relatively simple, you can get started quickly, and there are not many bells and whistles. The functions are very practical, and the templates are real and usable. For example, the large screen also has a certain degree of beauty. There are complete documentation resources and teaching videos in the development community. We don't have any anxiety about not using it. At the same time, you can also have multiple people assist in the configuration, which doubles the efficiency of development and delivery. What can be done in half an hour by dragging and dropping, many coders may take several days.
Of course, there are some small flaws on the smardaten platform, such as the mobile application, click "Preview", and you need to perform related operations. At the same time, you need to click "Save" before clicking the "Publish" button. Here you can use it on the website to help users Preservation, one step in place, generally speaking, the flaws do not conceal the advantages.
It is strongly recommended for friends who do not want to program, go to their S3 community to register and experience 20 minutes of quick configuration https://s3.smardaten.com/ , and focus more on business logic implementation.
However, smardaten is not only capable of making large screens, but also focuses on "data-driven, enterprise-level, and code-free". Integrated development of data domain, analysis domain, management domain, and operation domain accelerates the uncoded construction of enterprise-level complex applications. It is also possible to access, manage and control data throughout the process, and build a support base for digital applications. As well as powerful intelligent analysis tools, 2/3D visualization application scenarios are code-free construction, these charming functions need your unlocking.
