The COVID-19 crisis has shifted the software priorities of most organizations. IT leaders respond with technologies for rapid application development.

When IT departments are first introduced to low-code, a question we get is often whether this will lead to an increase in shadow IT.

In order to succeed with digital transformation, organizations should first modernize their legacy infrastructure and reimagine their business processes.

Low-code platforms enable a new group of talent to participate in application development projects: the Business Engineers! But who are these people?

As more and more enterprises start to realize the potential of visual application development, the terms “low-code” and “no-code” have become a part of the tech vocabulary. However, these two terms are not interchangeable, and professionals should use caution when evaluating platforms.

The nature of software development is continuing to evolve – as it has since its birth. Low-code platforms are disrupting software development by tackling more and more complex application scenarios. As a result, there are still fewer use cases where organizations must actually hand-code the solution.

At the heart of low-code is “model-driven development” – visual modelling of applications rather than traditional hand-coding. However, there are two fundamentally different architectural approaches towards how the visual model should be made into a running application.

If you are not yet familiar with low-code, there are some trigger-points for when you should consider looking for a low-code platform.
