What is a Low-Code Development Platform?
A low-code development platform lets a user use a GUI for programming the major aspect of applications, instead of relying entirely on code. This allows software to be developed rapidly while minimizing the programming efforts associated with traditional programming.
It minimizes hand coding efforts. This speeds up the development of code. These platforms assist with coding and expedient set up and deployment.
The concept of low-code app development is not new. However, the term was only coined in recent years. Over time, enterprising individuals have identified a way to make a process better and then take the initiative and create their own apps.
Thanks to low-code tools, people who are not the most tech-savvy but who have an interest in improving a business problem or process could create simple apps that address the problem. They are able to do this without having an in-depth understanding of programming.
On the flip side, there are traditional IT professionals and software developers. These individuals have a firm grasp on coding technologies. However, low-code platforms help accelerate software delivery by allowing them to quickly build apps to address specific business problems.
They don’t have to exert time and energy to manually code an app from scratch, especially if the app is comprised of common components and features. Low-code platforms allow these developers to use existing templates and then drag and drop pre-assembled elements, objects, and forms together to create a simple and tailored app that a department can use to address their task. The app is up and running in no time and with little hassle. They have created low-code platforms to help the novice user and the tech professional looking to accelerate the speed of an app’s development.
It is a bit of a balancing act. To be effective, a low-code platform needs to address the needs of users who have drastically different preferences and skill sets. They need to offer the nominal user a simplified development process for IT, they need to provide businesses with a simple UI to build an app step-by-step, and they need to let tech savvy users take advantage of in-depth customization options.
Low-code platforms must also allow third-party service integration, sufficient security and compliance, and additional data sources. This is a lot for a platform to do while keeping the experience simple and unified.
What Should You Know about Low-Code Development Platforms?
With a low-code development platform, you can create applications in an environment that requires minimal coding. These platforms lead to rapid application deployment. They minimize the need for a lot of coding experience. This streamlines the process of development.
When you use a low-code development platform, they typically provide you a user-friendly GUI as opposed to an integrated development environment. This leads to improved functionality via traditional computer programming tools.
With no-code development platforms, users only get a drag-and-drop experience. However, when a user uses a low-code development platform, they can alter or create source code if they so desire.
Low-code development platforms create are versatile. They create an environment that allows for multiple use cases. A team of developers who have years of experience can take advantage of the coding functionalities offered by low-code platforms. Conversely, if a business needs to make an app quickly but they don’t have any coding experience, they benefit because they can create their app without ever needing to change the source code.
This flexibility leads to increased collaboration on a project. Non-developers and developers can work together to speed up development. They do this by utilizing customized workflows and expanded functionality.
How to Build a Low-Code Application without Coding
Applications let you get things done. They work on your mobile device, desktop, or tablet. There are several commercial apps designed to address the needs of small to midsize businesses. However, there are some needs that are not addressed.
It does not matter if your business is a global enterprise or is just a few people working out of a garage, there will be a time when you will come across a problem that is not addressed by a third-party software. This is when you might first consider tackling the complex project of developing a custom in-house application.
If you can access a system that makes it easy for you to deploy functioning apps to attack a specific task or resolve a particular problem your team or organization is facing, you will be able to address sudden challenges as they arise.
Businesses understand the benefits that come from making the app creation process easier for the IT department, marketing team, and any other department that might require an application. Therefore, they turn to low-code development platforms. With a low-code development platform, you can realistically build, download, and start using a custom app in a matter of hours.
What Are the Benefits of Using Low-Code Development Platform Software?
- Versatility – There are several scenarios that could require your team to build an app. These platforms make it possible for you to design an app that is going to meet your team’s requirements at the moment. But this is just one of many potential benefits.
- Depth of Functionality – Low-code development platforms offer functionality that no-code development platforms do not offer. With a no-code platform, you are limited to a drag-and-drop environment. However, with low-code applications, experienced coders can quickly create an application and then use their coding experience to add extra functionality by adjusting the source code. Seasoned developers benefit from the efficiency, speed, and depth of functionality low-code development platforms offer.
- Simple to Use – Low-code development platforms have been designed to be easy to use. Although their name might suggest otherwise, you need not have any experience with coding to use these platforms. Even if your team has never coded before, with low-code development platforms, they can quickly build the applications and tools that they need. There are some advanced features that will require a knowledge of coding. However, you can put together the straightforward parts of an application immediately using in these platforms.
- A Reduced Development Cycle – Low-code development platforms allow your teams to create applications without needing to write the underlying code. By using a pre-built framework, they can develop something that is functional and attractive with a shorter development cycle.
- Team Collaboration – Since non-developers and developers can use these tools to create code, team collaboration is increased. If your organization requires the development of an app quickly, you can assign the project to team members who have differing levels of coding experience. The collaboration process is seamless, and there is less frustration. All of your team members can work together on the same page.
Features of Low-Code Development Platform Software
- No-Code Development – You can use the drag-and-drop features that allow you to create an application with no-code. This allows you to automate workflows in the app creation process. Even experienced coders will benefit from the no-code development features that you will find when using low-code development platforms. These features streamline the development process, making it possible to achieve the desired result faster.
- Mobility – Mobility means the ability to create your application and then deploy it everywhere. The apps are designed to work on all mobile devices since they have cross-platform functionality. With low-code development tools, this functionality is added automatically with no effort on your part.
- Custom Code – One thing that sets a low-code development platform apart from a no-code drag-and-drop platform is that you do can edit or write custom code using programing languages. This means that as a developer, you are going to have more control over how your application functions. But you are still going to streamline the development process.
- Application Deployment – You can build and deploy your application faster. The entire development cycle is sped up while giving you one hub to visualize the entire project. This keeps the entire workflow seamless.
- Visual Modeling – Visual modeling accelerates the development process. Visual models are easy to understand as opposed to conventional displays. This allows developers to fully grasp the entire app design easily.
- Workflow Templates – Low-code development platforms will offer workflow templates. These templates make it possible for you to tweak the software to meet your needs. This leads to a faster and more efficient development process.
- Lifecycle Management – With low-code development platforms, you are able to manage the development of the platform every step of the way. This is from the planning phase through the testing phase and then to deployment. As a developer, you are able to incorporate continuous integration and deployment during the DevOps workflow process.
How Much Do Low-Code Development Platforms Cost?
Low-code software is typically offered in a subscription SaaS model where you'll pay a monthly subscription fee to use the platform. The monthly price for a subscription will vary, starting as low as $20 per month per user and running up to more than $6,000 a month. Most low-code development platforms offer a free trial.
