Code Generation A compiler will convert the code into machine code before the program runs. 2. Model Interpretation Interpreters convert code into machine code when the program is running. THE RISE OF LOW-CODE Programming languages of the future THE RISE OF LOW-CODE Why should I use it? Lowering costs • Faster development + less code = faster deployment and less maintenance. THE RISE OF LOW-CODE Why should I use it? Future proof resume • Exponential growth forecast in the coming years. • Predict to reach a whopping €111 Billion (Miljard in NL) by the end of 2025. THE RISE OF LOW-CODE Why should I use it? Better Quality (fewer bugs) • Less code = fewer bugs. • The code is generated and compiled in the platform = the system maintains the code. THE RISE OF LOW-CODE Why should I use it? New type of development • Easy learning curve. • Build your first applications within hours after your initial one week training. • Easy integrations with the latest technology stacks.
