Low code is evil

If someone says that it can be a universal software or that you can do whatever you want on their platform. Then please block him.

I'm not saying that low code is bad, on the contrary, if they control the boundaries, low code should provide a good service experience, at least for non-programmers.

Over-marketing of low-code technology is not only irresponsible to consumers in the market, but also deeply hurts the developers who created the technology. Uninformed bosses spend a lot of money hiring developers, buying equipment or cloud services, all with the goal of making a big splash in the market. In the end, they find that they cannot even implement the most basic business logic. Technical staff feel frustrated and confused about not being able to meet the company's expected goals. It seems like a huge scam.

Revised sentence: "An increasing number of low-code frameworks or platforms are emerging rapidly, but only a few have achieved successful commercialization and profitability. While it may sound exciting to claim that 'you can achieve any business you want by configuring (by dragging and dropping some components and combining them),' it's important to remember that no software can solve all problems, even if it were developed by the most skilled professionals."
