Difference from no-code
No-code: No code at all — pure visual. Aigap is an example.
Low-code: Visual interface exists, but small amounts of code are written for customization. SQL queries, JavaScript snippets, formulas.
Pro-code: Traditional programming. Everything is code, written from scratch.
There's a spectrum among the three; no-code is fastest but most constrained, pro-code most flexible but slowest.
Popular low-code platforms
OutSystems, Mendix, Microsoft Power Apps, Retool. Generally aimed at the enterprise market.
In Turkey, low-code options for small businesses are limited; most SMBs go directly to no-code (Aigap) or off-the-shelf SaaS.
When to choose it
Is your need just slightly beyond what a no-code platform can do? Low-code fits. For example: writing your own report formulas in a standard CRM.
But you don't have a full software team? Low-code fits. An IT-analyst-level person is enough.
