The landscape of software development has been transformed by the emergence of Low code platforms, offering a compelling alternative to traditional frameworks, like a Java and Angular stack.
This shift raises pertinent questions about the advantages of adopting Low code over conventional development methodologies.
There are several advantages:
1. Faster development
Low code platforms significantly reduce the number of steps required to build applications.
With drag-and-drop interfaces and pre-built components, developers can create applications much faster than with manual coding.
This is enhanced by visual environments that make it easy to define the user interface and add dynamic functionalities.
A considerable time saving.
2. Low code is more accessible
Since Low code platforms simplify the development process, fewer experienced developers are needed, and these platforms bypass the complexity of using frameworks.
HR resources are thus optimized.
3. Cost reduction
In addition to optimizing resources and reducing personnel overhead, integrated tools for application management and maintenance reduce long-term costs.
Applications built on low code platforms are generally easier to update and manage because they rely on modular components that can be updated individually without impacting the entire system.
4. Security:
Low code platforms often integrate best practices in security and development, which can be more challenging to ensure when developing directly with Java and Angular.
5. Use of artificial intelligence:
Integration of AI in Low code platforms allows for automatic generation of application components and assists developers in writing custom code, using tools like Copilot.
Therefore, while Java and Angular frameworks remain reliable in software development, the adoption of Low code platforms presents a paradigm shift towards efficiency, accessibility, scalability cost-effectiveness, and enhanced security.
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).
