As someone who works in a no-code platform company, my view confirmed by a look at our revenues is the author is way off. low-code no-code platforms are booming and will continue to for a long time. There are several reasons
1 - there is a huge backlog of business processes which can be made more efficient with apps
2 - there is deficiency in developers, but a surplus of knowledge workers
3 - IT departments are unable to solve all users app needs
4 - enterprises are mananaging far too many SaaS 'point solutions'
5- most importantly, ROI and TCO make low-code platforms very attractive.
6 - the ability to quickly customize business process applications is incredibly important. Low-code platforms provide this
7 - technologies like webhooks are making it easier for low-code app builders to create sophisticated apps tied to multiple cloud and on prem data sources and systems.
