What is Low-Code?

Platforms that minimise coding through visual tools but allow custom code when needed

Why It Matters

Low-code speeds up development while still allowing customisation for unique requirements

Real-World Example

Using Retool to build an internal dashboard with drag-and-drop, adding custom JavaScript for special features

“Understanding terms like Low-Code matters because it helps you have better conversations with developers and make smarter decisions about your software. You do not need to be technical. You just need to know enough to ask the right questions.”
