End users (entrepreneurs, innovators, employees, product managers, etc.) who previously needed to hire a software developer can now harness the power of no-code tools to create and manage software in a faster, cheaper, and simpler way. No-code can be thought of as the dispersion of software development. NYU Professor, entrepreneur, and marketing guru Scott Galloway has described a trend he calls “ The Great Dispersion,” in which the value of an industry or offering is being increasingly “dispersed” to the end consumer. Less than 1% of the world’s working population are software developers, and no-code is on a mission to disperse the power of software into the hands of the other 99%. Several other software use cases like website and app building, workflow automation, data analytics, database construction, chatbots, and more, are slowly but surely becoming “no-code by default” in the same way that ecommerce is today.

Today, who would think of creating an ecommerce site using code, right? Before Shopify, people had to code (yes, code!) to build their ecommerce business.įive years ago, when I launched my second (failed 🙂) business Henlein, a fashion watch brand in Argentina, I built the site myself using Shopify in less than a week, despite having zero coding skills. No-code tools are disrupting software development the way Shopify has disrupted ecommerce building. This blog post was guest authored by Maxi Tommasi.

How the no-code movement will disrupt software and empower entrepreneurs, project managers, mid-large companies, freelancers, and even software developers to code less and build more.
