In this thought-provoking blog post, the author challenges the growing trend of "no-code" platforms and their promises of empowering non-technical individuals to build complex software applications without coding. The author argues that while these platforms may offer convenience and democratize certain aspects of software development, they cannot replace the need for true coding skills. The post dives into the limitations and potential downsides of relying too heavily on no-code tools, emphasizing the importance of understanding the underlying principles of coding. Ultimately, the author advocates for a balanced approach that combines the convenience of no-code platforms with a solid foundation in coding knowledge.
