I cannot believe there are only eight replies to this.

Is no-code the future? Yes. But not for at least twenty years, if not more.

My car is “no code”. I have no idea how it works. Most of the people who literally built it likely have no idea how it really works. And that’s great. I don’t want to know anything about my car. Cars aren’t my thing. But if even the slightest thing goes wrong with my car, I’m spending a very large amount of money to get it fixed.

This holds true for pretty much every single technology ever.

You can almost certainly create a no-code website right now. But you won’t be able to truly customize it the way you want, if at all. And if anything goes wrong, you’re spending a very large amount of money to get it fixed.

Twenty years from now? Sure. Fifty years from now? Definitely. Today? Pay someone to do it correctly or learn yourself.
