This has been the argument for every CMS and no-code solution ever. 80% of apps are just crud. 90% maybe! We can just anticipate all the needs and have plugins and drag and drop builders. Coding will be restricted to just a small set of senior engineers working on core framework development. Just watch! Any moment now..

And they were right, in a way. Frameworks excel in the early stages of application development. Drag and drop, click to create a database, it all works. But ask even small sized companies if they keep using it after 1 year, and the answer is often no. If it is yes, it’s usually all building custom things to work around the limitations of the framework. Or, it is a simple product/site with no further needs (but they are rare).

Anyway, AI for the full development cycle! Any moment now..
