What is Low-code?

Low-code and no-code platforms are revolutionizing the software world by accelerating software development processes and enabling non-technical users to develop applications. According to Gartner, by 2025, 70% of software projects developed worldwide will be realized on these platforms. These platforms enable fast and error-free application development thanks to drag-and-drop interfaces and pre-built components.

In this installment of the tutorial series, we will look at a trend that is revolutionizing the world of Software development: Low-code and No-code platforms. Gartner predicts that by 2025, 70% of software projects developed worldwide will be realized on these platforms. So, what is the driving force behind this change? Let's examine it together.

We can think of software development as a construction project. Developing software using traditional methods is like placing each brick by hand - time-consuming, labor-intensive and error-prone. However, with low-code and no-code platforms, this process can be likened to building a building quickly and error-free using prefabricated building elements. They allow developers and even non-technical users to quickly build applications through drag-and-drop interfaces and pre-made components.

Low-code platforms are categorized into different types according to their intended use. They range from business applications, customer engagement platforms, data analytics, artificial intelligence tools and business process automation. Each type offers customized tools and components to solve a specific problem set.

So what is the difference between low-code and no-code? Simply put, low-code platforms allow developers to develop applications quickly, but require a certain level of coding knowledge. No-code platforms, on the other hand, are designed to enable even non-coding users to develop apps. Both approaches democratize app development and provide access to a wider audience.

Gartner's statistics clearly show how low-code and no-code platforms are revolutionizing software development. Thanks to these platforms, companies are one step ahead of the competition, speeding up development processes and driving innovation. In the continuation of this training series, we will see how interfaces are quickly designed and prototyped on the Kuika low-code platform and we will witness the high speed in the development process together with applications.
