> If you are asking "well we could build this in 2 hours with low-code or 8 hours with rails" - then you are not the target market for low-code. To be able to build a rails app in one day takes years of skill and education and maturity. A lot of people or organisations want to build apps but don't have that expertise.
Exactly, low/no code solutions have their limitations, but I think the space they're useful for is — "they" need a simple CRUD app so they build it themselves in No Code solution, figure out what they really want & what the pain points are and _then_ bring on board a developer if it needs expansion, but with a real todo list in front of them.
Or (just as useful to the business user), realise it's not what they need and bin the project before engaging a dev at all.
