"New Low Code/No Code dev practices : unleash value while keeping risks under control"
In this post, you'll find some remarkable points.
ℹ️ Remarkable points
- 💰 Opportunities : it makes it possible to create apps at a very reduced cost
- 📜 Guidelines and rules to maximize success : help document and implement process standardization (decision tree, HR process, document workflow management,...)
- 🍝 Urbanization : create a shared responsibility between Information System and end-users
⚖️ Low Code vs. No Code
-
No Code: suited to prototype, create a MVP just by using ready to use components -
Low Code: Suited to create apps that last longer but that aren't business critic (workflow, web pages,...)
👮 BUILD & RUN guidelines
- 📜 Setting a dedicated governance is a prerequisite for a good deployment
- ⚖️ Define criteria to choose Low vs. No code solutions
- 💸 Master costs (pay attention to freemium)
- 🥇 Put the most successful ones under greater control
- 🏙️ Master urbanization
- 🛑 Explain where autonomy starts and ends
- 🧑🤝🧑 Get a dedicated entity at the development side
- 📊 Setup clear eligibility criteria : "How business critic is the app, how many users,...", "How complex is UI/UX", "How long will the app last"
- 🔙 Reversibility
- 🏬 Use APIs by consulting API portfolio or Marketplace

AI and Machine Learning is moving the boundaries. We always used to define ourselves as low-code and not no-code. Today I am not so sure anymore ...
Thanks for pointing this. I'll look forward if Appsheet for example may embed a ready to use AI to speed-up lowcode dev.
Adopting Low Code/No Code: Six Fitnesses to Look for
When selecting a no-code/low-code platform, six key fitnesses should be examined: purpose fit, cost fit, ops fit, user fit, use-case fit, and organization fit. The IT team should be heavily involved in this decision as they play a pivotal role in helping citizen developers with platform adoption.
