No-Code: Basics

Are you interested in the no-code world, but don't know where to start? If you are just starting and want to know what it is all about, here we tell you the fundamental aspects of this movement that is revolutionizing the way of developing digital solutions.

What is no-code? 

We know that we are immersed in the digital era. But even so, web creation and development are mostly reserved for only a part of the population: those who know how to program. Did you know that only 1% of the world's population knows how to do it?

However, in the last few years, a new movement has grown exponentially, capable of allowing programming and development to be more than just a matter of a few. The no-code is a very interesting alternative for those who want to undertake in the digital world, but do not have the knowledge to do so.

The no-code movement

No-code is defined as codeless or visual programming. That is the possibility of bypassing coding languages. In this way, the creation process becomes more visually and simpler. Its goal is to democratize web development by permitting anyone to have easy access to it, focusing on human language through graphical, intuitive and interactive interface tools (such as drag & drop). Allowing the creation of a unique solution to a problem, generating all kinds of web or digital products.

Advantages of no-code

• Agility: The use of pre-designed models and visual elements make the creation of web, apps and other tools, a faster and more agile process, which generates an increase in productivity.
• Savings: Hiring a team of developers can be costly. At this point, no-code is more cost-effective because you don't need to be an expert in programming. Therefore, the investment is significantly lower.
• Speed: Modifying or customizing a programmed software is complex. It takes time and effort. Using no-code tools, changes are much faster and easier.

No-Code vs. Low code

You've probably heard of the term "low code" as well. What are its differences and similarities with no-code?

We could say that they are brothers. Both options facilitate the creation of apps and websites through visual elements. As a consequence, both reduce time and investment, but unlike no-code, low-code platforms do require a certain degree of development knowledge (such as the use of specific programming languages) for their handling and management. However, some tools allow a combination of both. Integrating customizable templates to insert your code next to the no-code blocks.

Conclusion

No-code allows web development without code. It guarantees the optimization of time, resources and money. It democratizes and humanizes programming. More and more entrepreneurs, companies and private users are betting on no-code tools to create apps, software and websites more easily.
