Low-Code and No-Code: Choosing the Right App Development Platform
Choose the right approach to app development that suits the needs of your business
The Primary Differences Between
Low-Code and No-Code
Low-code and no-code platforms serve a primary role in any business—to reduce IT backlog and enable application development.
While low-code still relies on minimal code, the platforms that employ this approach are still friendly to non-IT users who are looking to build apps. No-code, on the other hand, completely eliminates the need to code. Building apps on them requires absolutely no assistance from IT or the core development team.
