No-code and it's use cases - a possible career choice or a fad?

I’ve taken up a paid course for bubble.io a no-code full stack app development platform. I have 6 months money back guarantee. Is it a good idea to invest time into no-code such as bubble.io or is it a literal bubble?

I don’t know, friend, I’m going to give you my example, I study cybersecurity and the more I get into deep and difficult tools like assembly or languages ​​like C or C++, my other skills to create all types of code incredibly improve. I would recommend that you Grab a language that you like and start doing projects that you are really passionate about, from there you will only discover what you like the most. I think that no-code platforms are fine for make an mvp or test an idea but when it comes to developing it ,the code will always be better.

I know, friend and I’m not saying that nocode is better than hardcode. Also, cybersecurity is a good field to get into rn. I got into it back in 2021. and still learning.

As for hardcode and nocode,. They’re different in their use cases and quality of course. I find it easier to code visually since I used to be a graphic designer before the market was flooded.

Now bubble is basically like wordpress with visual coding, but takes away the self hosted aspect so it’s basically remotely hosted code. It still requires you to have software engineering skills.
The company is responsible for keeping all the databases up,the dependencies up to date and for maintaining security,backups etc. of the apps. It really speeds up creating working apps like CRMs, Dashboards, AI integrated apps etc. (saves time) and you can offer the aoo at a lower price than it would cost a client to buy a hardcoded app for example. It’s niche though so there is a learning curve, but it’s a lot of fun.

I think a lot of genz and gen alpha kids and young people who grew up developing in MIT’s Scratch for example will grow up to be tuned to this kind of visual coding so it will definitely have it’s place in the future, but not as a substitute for hardcoding.
