No programming is necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/joshbersin.com\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/joshbersin.com\/\">Josh Bersin<\/a>, an HR industry analyst, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shrm.org\/resourcesandtools\/hr-topics\/technology\/pages\/low-code-emerges-as-a-game-changing-option.aspx\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.shrm.org\/resourcesandtools\/hr-topics\/technology\/pages\/low-code-emerges-as-a-game-changing-option.aspx\">said that<\/a> &#8220;what low code means is that you don&#8217;t have to hire a software engineer to change something. If I am the learning and development manager or a recruiter and I have a platform and it does not do quite what I want, with a low-code platform I can reconfigure and change it to do what I want it to do, and that is a massive disruptive trend.&#8221;  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gartner.com\/en\/documents\/3956079\" data-type=\"URL\"
