What is a No-Code platform?

No-code is a term used to identify tools that enable non-coders to create web and mobile applications.
As the name suggests, visual programming is a paradigm in which programmers don't have to write a single line of code to build the application they want.
No-code or non-code development platforms are integrated development environments (IDE) visuals that allow users to drag and drop the components they want to include in their application. A no-code platform allows for a simple and logical assembly of components that can be used to launch a mobile application or web.

Advantages of codeless development platforms

• Ergonomic and intuitive
• Cost reduction
• Easy to modify
• Increased productivity

The main advantage of a no-code platform is that it's generally easier to use than coding from scratch. They're designed with ergonomics in mind, so they're generally intuitive and visually pleasing.
No-code development platforms can significantly reduce the time and money required to application creation Web. No coding required - or, at least, very little.

Additionally, no-code platforms can be easily modified by company employees rather than programmers, meaning the software can be updated and adjusted as needed, which can increase productivity.

How to create application prototypes on “No-code” development platforms?

No-code development platforms (NCDPs), such as bubble.io and adalo.com, allow us to do a lot of things without having to write a single line of code.
These frameworks integrate with each other, making it possible to create complex prototypes without having to write any code. One of the most popular no-code development platforms is bubble.io, which lets you build web applications by dragging and dropping elements into place via their website.

5 no-code development platforms for building apps

• Bubble
• Webflow
• Adalo
• Coda
• Unqork

No-code tools are changing the way enterprise software is developed. But more importantly, they enable non-developers to build applications that traditionally only developers could create.
The power of these no-code tools truly puts the power of technology in the hands of non-coders, which is of great interest to businesses and will continue to grow in popularity. This trend is just getting started. The “no-code” lifestyle will eventually become the norm for anyone who wants to create something on the web or with their mobile device.
