The quest to enhance developer productivity is a constant pursuit, driven by the need to keep pace with rapid market changes and deliver powerful software solutions under tight deadlines.
With the competitive technology talent pool, optimizing the productivity of existing development teams becomes crucial for any organization.
Developer productivity is essentially about achieving more with less—delivering high-quality, software swiftly and efficiently. However, measuring this productivity goes beyond simple metrics like lines of code written or bugs fixed.
It requires a focus on outcomes, such as quicker time-to-market and a competitive edge, which are pivotal for becoming a high-performing organization.
Developer productivity can be gauged through metrics that reflect an organization's capability to rapidly deploy code changes with minimal failure rates.
These include deployment frequency, lead time for changes, mean time to recover, and change failure rate. Such metrics not only measure productivity but also the effectiveness of software delivery.
Several obstacles hinder developer productivity, including the complexity of modern development environments and the proliferation of SaaS applications requiring integration. Additionally, a significant portion of developers' time is consumed by non-coding activities such as CI/CD, testing, and security.
1) Visual empowerment:
Low code platforms offer the possibility to develop both the front-end and the back-end of applications, furnishing pre-built templates, drag-and-drops widgets and customizable components.
This full-stack approach enables developers to rapidly model applications to their exact specifications.
2) Integration:
Applications created on the platform can be seamlessly connected to cloud services or other enterprise systems via a repertoire of ready-to-use connectors (SAP, Microsoft 365, Oracle, Baserow, Airtable...).
Our platform integrates more than 300 connectors.
3) Components:
Low code platforms generally contain a large number of components.
Developers can draw on this repository to accelerate development cycles, harnessing the power of reuse.
4) DevOps ecosystem:
Low code platforms provide all DevOps tools, enabling developers to iterate CI/CD pipelines.
These tools include everything they need to start developing applications right through to production, including automation and monitoring.
5) AI
Many high-performance Low code platforms are usually equipped with IA functions, helping developers navigate the complexities of modern software.
Convertigo is the FullStack platform for No code and Low code application development.
As the Open Source alternative to other Enterprise grade platforms such as Microsoft Power Apps, it transforms how companies deploy their business solutions with a dual approach: Low code for IT departments and No code for business teams.
The Convertigo platform is enriched with over 300 connectors allowing smooth and fast integration with various applications and databases and can be hosted On Premises.
Convertigo has offices in France and North America and serves hundreds of SME’s and large customers (Banking, Insurance, Retail).
