ICB Report No. 70, "Low Code Platforms: Promises, Concepts and Prospects: A Comparative Study of Ten Systems," written by Alexander Bock, Ulrich Frank and Pierre Maier, presents the results of a study of ten selected "low code" development environments. Such systems have recently gained remarkable attention. They come with the promise of significantly increasing software development productivity and enabling non-programmers to create software systems. The study makes clear that in most cases there is a significant discrepancy between claim and reality.
