SUMMER 2020 Customer Success Report Low-Code Development Platforms Category Low-Code Development Platforms Category Low-code development platforms enable companies to create software quickly without the need for deep coding expertise. The solutions offer base-level code, integrations, and scripts to empower businesses to prototype, build, and scale applications without needing to develop complex infrastructures. Even non-developers can use these programs to build applications rapidly with customized functionality and workflows. Low-code development platforms are different from no-code solutions because they permit more advanced functionality with customized code instead of a drag-n-drop interface. However, they are a step below fully integrated development tools because they do not offer features to build complete apps from scratch. In short, low-code development platforms integrate with APIs, web services, and databases to link data, enable developers to customize source code and HTML markup, and produce source code as a foundation for customization.
