Let's say it's a marketing campaign or a quick project. Do you think it's better to develop the website with code or use a web builder?


What problem are you solving? If you want to expose already existing data, text, pictures, or do simple transformations, no-code is good. If you need to develop your logic, gather conditionally data from different sources that needs to be parsed and so on, this gets complex and you'd better use a proper language.

No-code only means that the code is somewhere else and it has been nicely packaged for easy reuse. The moment you can't build it with lego, you can't do it with no-code. :)


I'm doing research, thus wanting to see what others think of it. I tried to spark conversation to see where/when/who and for what purpose people can use it.. (when is the exact time to switch from no code to for example hiring a developer)
