A team consisting of developers and quality assurance develop a custom app.  The process from design to completion typically takes months, even when agile development techniques are used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The other development extreme is &#8216;no-code&#8217;.  With no code, users are able to use a UI to &#8216;click and drag&#8217; to configure and create new applications.  No-code applications typically are very simple modifications or combinations of some common features offered by the no-code tool. Depending on the use case, no-code application development can be quite effective, but often it lacks the depth whenever any requirement lies even partially outside the realm of what the no-code toolkit was designed to handle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More recently, &#8216;low-code&#8217; environments are becoming popular.  Often these are no-code like tools with the added capability of being able to enhance functionality via light scripting.  While low-code is significantly more flexible than no-code, like &#8216;no-code&#8217;, it has limits in what it can do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now some developments tools are introducing hybrid development environments.  A full-blown IDE development toolkit can offer extension tools that offer low- or no-code capabilities, but if needed, developers can always be called on to fill in or fix whatever gaps are remaining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/devops.com\/hybrid-low-code-the-next-step-in-app-development\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/devops.com\/hybrid-low-code-the-next-step-in-app-development\/\">Tony Graham<\/a>, Product Marketing Manager at Lansa, said that &#8220;hybrid low-code is a next step in the evolution of app development. Low-code development tools shouldn\u2019t be isolated in their own IDEs. It can be frustrating to leave a low-code IDE to finish the app in another IDE, and then have to connect the different elements into one cohesive app. As you can see, efficiency is reduced every time a developer leaves one IDE for another. Hybrid low-code views low-code as a tool inside a bigger development toolbox. It is there when convenient, but a developer isn\u2019t forced to use just low-code.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"lightsocial_container\"><div class=\"lightsocial_element\"><a class=\"lightsocial_a\"
