Low code platforms cut down the hand-coding and make mobile application development drag-n-drop easy. And that also without compromising anything from the perspective of performance and consistency.
Imagine the number of time developers and companies can save by adopting low code platforms for their next app development.
A low code platform is a well-versed app development environment that leverages a graphical interface to configure and assemble mobile apps. And yeah! It is drag-n-drop easy.
I got so thrilled when I thought about the full potential of low-code development and what it can help us, as companies, startups, and enterprises to achieve.
However, it is confusingly disappointing to know that these mighty platforms are not receiving the attention they deserve.
If you are reading this, then you are one of those who know a little or more about low-code platforms.
Incoming a big High Five!
The thing is, the market is starting to flood with various low-code platforms. Even big companies like Microsoft, Oracle, and Salesforce are in this race.
Salesforce Development is massively known for powerful and flexible customer relationship management (CRM) software. In 2019, Salesforce launched their low-code app development tool called, Lightning Object Creator.
This tool help creators and mobile app developers turn spreadsheets into mobile apps instantly. It supports spreadsheets like Google Sheets, Microsoft Excel, and .csv files.
Salesforce seems to eliminate data silos one spreadsheet at a time. Salesforce Lightning Object Creator uses the Salesforce Lightning Platform to turn manual workflows into custom objects. In addition, developers can enjoy the benefit of seamless cloud integration.
Microsoft has been developing versatile products and services for businesses and individuals for quite a long time now. No doubt, other than their Office 365, Sitecore, and other services, Microsoft chose to launch their low-code development platform, Microsoft Power Apps.
So basically, Microsoft Power Apps is a combination of three services, Power BI, Power Apps, and Flow.
In other words, developers can easily develop some very robust and scalable apps while leveraging the Power BI development services for data analytics, Power Apps for acting and modifying data, and Flow for automating the data.
