As per reports, the market for low-code or no-code development technologies is anticipated to reach a total of $26.9 billion by 2023, an increase of 19.6% from 2022.
Today businesses desire to digitally transform their regular operations, to perform tasks faster. To develop software and applications quickly, businesses are adopting low-code or no-code technologies. Low-code technologies allow business users and developers to focus on their areas of expertise by reducing complexities.
The major reason contributing to the adoption is the ever-increasing demand for applications from organizations and their desire for hyper-automation. Thus, with the adoption of no or low-code development platforms, users can easily build applications with very little coding knowledge and experience.

Sometimes it becomes difficult for companies to hire full-time developers. Even there are businesses with developers that want to free up more of their time and are increasingly shifting to low-code or no-code platforms. These platforms allow companies to deploy developers with no coding or low coding experience to build apps and save time.
