Low Code Platforms - Lessons Learned

Low-code platforms have become increasingly popular. They enable organizations to develop software applications quickly and easily without requiring extensive programming skills. However, their convenience and accessibility do come with some challenges.

As the usage of low-code platforms is gaining momentum these days, I wanted to share some of the lessons we've learned working with our clients.

We've been working with a client who had developed a product using a low-code platform. The product was solid and had strong market potential. However, there were challenges:

If you want to move your code out of the low code platform, it's almost impossible and you may need to rewrite it. In our client's case, the low-code platform could export code, but it was unusable. Extracted code could work as a "black box" but it was
