Zero-coding in software development

 The main conclusion after half a year of immersion in the topic of zero-coding is undoubtedly an evolutionary breakthrough that provides all of us with more choice and more freedom. Today, the number of zero-coding tools has turned into quality, and this is what changes reality.

Unfortunately, hype and marketing put labels that help in the tactics of promoting local initiatives of zero-coding evangelists, but they can harm the general trend, but this always happens with everything new for the mass consumer.

I would single out the following groups of users who will benefit the most from zero-coding:

Developers and programmers. A lot of routine and initial prototypes are faster and easier to solve with the zerocode tool. Thanks to zero-coding, there will be a good influx of new specialists - those who were stopped by the need to learn the code at the start will come.

Zerocoding pros and cons

 zerocoding — the author of the idea (a product or other non-developer) assembles a prototype with his own hands in which a feature is tested and understands it better during the assembly process. If everything is fine, he kicks out the zerocode version for testing. Again, normal - then there are already arguments for transferring the feature to the developer's backlog for planned implementation in production. For this, a few hours or days are enough, in difficult cases.

If you regularly test hypotheses using zero-coding tools, a product manager or startup founder can improve:

Observation, which allows even when the idea was just born, to understand its weaknesses and more adequately assess its prospects.

Understanding the basic nuances of development, thanks to which interaction with the developer becomes more harmonious and effective.
