Introducing No Code Tools and How They Can Work for You

In today’s business, the demand for software often outpaces the supply of available coders. For businesses that find the need for new applications to drive their business initiatives, there are now “no code” tools available that can help them create the software they need without having to lean on software developers. This week, we take a look at no code tools and how they can work for your business. 

What is No Code?

Basically, all software is made up of code; and if you take it all the way to its fundamentals, binary code. All programming languages draw on binary code at their core and today there are software developers out there that have made it simple for someone that doesn’t have fluency in programming languages to create applications or build web-based constructs. 

With no code, laymen have endless possibilities for web and application development. These include:

• Efficiently create mobile app builders, databases and productivity tools, website builders, document and form builders, email marketing software, membership platforms, eCommerce websites, web-based forums, and automation tools.
• Build mobile and web-based applications.
• Create operational efficiencies that circumvent redundant software issues.
• Test concepts in application or website form affordably before hiring coders.
