Ask HN: What do you think about the no-code movement?
Hi HN, maybe it's just the bubble I'm in but these days I see a lot of discussion around "no-code" and the "no-code" movement. There's also a bunch of new no-code apps being launched every day - https://www.producthunt.com/topics/no-code#order=trending.
Some seem to supplement developers (eg: retool) and some empower non-engineers to be able to build websites/apps/integrations without necessarily having a developer in the loop (eg: shopify/zapier/airtable).
What do you think about this movement? Clearly these apps/platforms enable non-developers to solve a bunch of problems which would otherwise need a software engineer. Is this a paradigm shift?
