Comment on Ask HN: Is no-code a future of web development?

Comments

The tide of software is always turning from "requires custom development" towards "turnkey solutions exists." "No-code" is a buzzword that sits on one of the contours between the two.

Of course the web is/will be changing. The only interesting aspect of the web is that it expends so much effort changing it's fashion rather than it's form that this question even has to be asked.

Agree that no-code is a buzzword, and one that VC-backed plays like Webflow are using constantly as part of their marketing.

Salesforce and Wordpress are both "no-code" platforms that people have built businesses on. Fortunately they include the ability to write and edit code so you can go past the limitations of its off-the-shelf plugin libraries.
