#NoCode and #LowCode movement are the Industrial Revolution for tech. I know how to code but would still prefer writing less code if possible. Who doesn’t love doing less work as long as we get to the same destination - launching products?

After adding a column for each step, this is what I end up with. For step 1:

 

For step 2:

 

 

For the final step:

 

I said “one day” in the title, but truth be told, what I have is only a proof of concept. I am improving it and hope to launch it as a product soon. My apologies that today’s update is late! I will get better next time, I promise!
