Get pissed with me if you want but I hate low code no code development. Anything that takes us away from learning our profession inhibits true innovation. It is unprofessional. You can't fix it if you don't know it and it insults those in education who know learning is lifelong.

It’s like craft = ƒ(1/ease of coding) At the same time, we emphasize ease of coding everywhere, for also pretty good reasons Personally, I believe our craft will only survive if we anchor a stronger idea of professionalism (cf. valid output)—and that it may be okay if doesn’t

I don't think it will be okay and I also agree there should be good tools for professionals. They are also deceptively named and targeted at marketing and Business Development not at Developers. When an application Built This Way fails what has to be fixed? The code.

On the “okay,” I wonder whether what we observe is a natural change of work and work roles. If the field evolves in a way that our work is all halfway abstracted and automated, then clinging to it seems like the worst of our possible responses. Yet again, all may not be lost.
