Tried Rapid Ext JS (Low-Code in VS Code) — Here’s My Honest Take

I recently tested Rapid Application Development while working on an Ext JS project, and here’s a quick breakdown.

What It Is

A VS Code extension that adds:

Drag-and-drop UI builder
Real-time preview
Low-code workflow

On top of Sencha Ext JS.

What I Liked
Faster layout building
No need to write repetitive UI code
Instant visual feedback

What I Question
Will devs rely too much on UI tools?
How does it scale in large teams?

Where It Shines
Admin dashboards
Enterprise apps
Rapid prototyping

Basically anywhere Sencha Ext JS is already strong.

Final Take

Low-code isn’t replacing developers.

But tools like Rapid Ext JS are definitely:
speeding up UI development
reducing boilerplate
improving workflow
