What is low-code
development?

Low-code is a modern approach to agile software development. A low-code application development platform helps developers create products visually by abstracting and automating commonly used components. This leads to reduced complexity and quick go-to-market during delivery of applications. Developers can easily drag and drop commonly used features instead of having to code extensively.

Saving almost half the investment that is usually spent in training, development, and set-up, low-code app development platforms like WaveMaker ensure faster development cycles, easy coding, and innovative digital transformation stories.

80%  Lesser coding required compared to traditional software development

75%   Lower maintenance costs than the traditional software life cycle

How does low-code work?

Visual Development Low-code platforms offer a WYSIWYG development environment where developers can drag and drop components to design responsive user interfaces that adapt to a device’s screen resolution. Some low-code platforms like WaveMaker also offer out-of-the-box templates for commonly used layouts and screens such as dashboards.Simplified Integrations.

 

Low-code development platforms are expected to provide a visual approach for developers to connect to data sources and embed data elements directly into the application. Low-code development Platforms like WaveMaker allow professional developers to design data models and configure business logic directly.

 

Low-code application development platforms are expected to streamline and speed up the application delivery process with zero DevOps. Such platforms, like WaveMaker, also offer a single point of control for app maintenance and updates, they extend the capabilities to security, governance, infrastructure auto-scaling, and more.

 

Resources RAD, aPaaS, BPM, No code - How are they different Rapid Application Development (RAD)

Rapid application development is a software development methodology that uses tools and techniques to speed up the development process. It relies on prototyping and rapid iterative development to release apps faster and elicit early feedback from business users.

Faster apps releases

Early feedback mechanism

Iterative development

Application Platform as a Service (aPaaS)

According to Gartner, aPaaS is a cloud service that offers development and deployment environments for application services. An aPaaS platfom provides the ability to build apps iteratively, scale on-demand, provision instantly, and integrate with other services.

Instant provisioning

On-demand scaling

Easy integrations

Business Process Management (BPM)

BPM software suites serve as solutions to many business problems by enabling automation, monitoring, modeling, and streamlining business processes. Modern BPM platforms bring value for simple business apps without complex customizations.

Efficiency optimization

Simple applications

Extensive training-driven

No Code Development

No code application development employs the visual drag-n-drop development methodology where developers can build template-driven applications without any kind of hand coding. No code application development platforms are used to build short-term applications with simple UIs.
