What is No-Code & Low-Code?

The concept of No Code and Low-code may very well be new to you.

The technologies and platforms associated with this exciting approach to software development is still fairly recent although there have been various low-code platforms for niche sectors for years already,

No-Code
No code means just that - no code. This is where there is zero development required to build an app or website. No-code platforms are often very limited as to what they can do and lack the scalability, power and flexibility of low-code alternatives. 

Low-Code
Low-code platforms offer reduced coding and professional developer dependence. The amount of coding required can vary from platform to platform. 

Devum is 90% no-code with a small element of simplified PseudoCode (Our own language - Devl ) which is required in some cases.

Conclusion
Ultimately, Devum is primarily a no-code platform with low-code elements. A non-developer can certainly develop apps without coding leveraging our user guides, community forum and support channels. 

Devum opens the door to Citizen Developers to collaborate with their technical counterparts and build apps rapidly at a fraction of the time and cost compared to native app Development. 

The Age of the Citizen Developer is here!

With Low-Code anyone can now build an App.

A citizen developer is anyone who is not a professional developer and who has zero to little programming knowledge and who builds apps using no or low-code platforms.

Citizen Developers are empowered business users who can design and develop apps independently or in conjunction with professional developers for their business or clientele.
