Has anyone tried no-code platforms for rapid prototyping?
I’ve been trying WordPress AI website builders (like https://www.obsidian.space) and wanted to get the community’s thoughts on where this technology is heading.
What’s interesting about it is the approach - you can apparently build websites, apps, and software tools using natural language prompts rather than traditional coding. The workflow seems to be: describe what you want → get a working prototype → deploy directly to platforms like Netlify or GitHub. They’re also working on WordPress integration.
This got me thinking about the broader shift toward no-code/low-code solutions. I’m curious about others’ experiences:
Have you used similar prompt-to-deployment platforms?
What’s been your experience with no-code tools for rapid iteration?
Do you think these tools are genuinely useful for serious projects, or more suited to quick mockups?
I’m particularly interested in hearing from anyone who’s used this for client work or personal projects. The promise of going from concept to deployed app quickly is appealing, but I’m wondering about the limitations you hit in practice.
What are your thoughts on where this space is heading?
