How customizable are Low-code platforms?
Low-code development, a new alternative to software development/coding that uses a simple interface of drag and drop that involves minimal coding to achieve quick development and delivery. 🚀
By replacing coding with visual modeling, Low-code development eliminates the need for writing code from scratch. These tools convert all of the abstractions into the code itself and are designed to develop products faster and in a more efficient way. 🙌
There are several advantages that the low-code approach brings to the table. We have covered several pieces on the benefits of the low code of the business. 👇

Development, the Low-code way 👩💻
Low-code development enables end-users to complete complex business requirements with fewer risks and with less effort than custom software development. These platforms are solutions to many developer problems and barriers to traditional development, enabling business users/developers to develop better systems, build applications, and digitize processes in a much less time-consuming and cost-effective way. 👯♀️
Although the low-code approach works perfectly for some use cases, there are still areas where there may be questions, one of such, is how customizable are low-code tools.
Why is Customization an issue?
As the saying goes, everything has two sides, and while low-code offers many pros, one of the most common cons which are often topics of discussion is the lack of customization associated with low-code tools, but why? — Because there’s always a limit to what UI-based tools can do. Depending on the number of things exposed to you, you can only alter those things — severely limiting your ability to add anything not provided by the platform. On the other hand, when you code from scratch, you can build whatever you want.
Low-code tools come around this problem by exposing code of some core functionalities which allows you to extend beyond what the platform provides you and build complex solutions/products
Are low-code tools really limited in their ability to customize? 🤔
Well, the answer will hugely depend on your choice of selecting the low-code tools for your product/application/business.
Many low-code tools are available on the market, each offering its own features, so one must thoroughly review every aspect and use case before choosing the right platform.
How customizable are Low-code platforms?
Low-code platforms’ easy customization through an intuitive user interface offers the ability to easily add or change APIs, connect and modify databases like MongoDB, SQL, PostgreSQL, user permissions, OAuth login, user permissions, cron triggers, and more. But, there are certain parts of applications that demand to be coded from scratch, different low-code platforms use different methods to achieve this.
