Do low-code or no-code development platforms really improve a developers team performance? Do you know any good examples?

Hi Sebastian, yes - for sure, at least in the phase of ideation and prototyping.

If you check nicolaikrueger.com and then resources, you find my prototyping toolchain with a bunch of helpful tools for this purpose.

I made the experience, that developers start discussing architecture or technical steps, while the product is still not well defined. To overcome this, approaches like rapid prototyping can help to stay on a visual or low-code level.

In a recent project, we spend 5 days in a design sprint to get UI and architecture done (banking app, mobile and web) and the dev team could start right after implementing. Old world: 4 month of upfront documentation, proposals back and forth and so on and so on…
