Hi everyone 👋 I am Vinothini (aka Vino) the founder & CEO @ gopaddle.io, a no code platform for Kubernetes developers. I have a deep interest in developer platforms. Last year, I wrote an article in TheNewStack with my thoughts on no code cloud native platforms. https://thenewstack.io/how-low-code-platforms-can-help-cloud-native-developers/ Hope you like it.

Welcome, no-code based on a standardized platform can work.

Welcome, It will be interesting to see were no-code tools go in this space, considering the community is moving very fast towards IAC/gitops which is the complete opposite, I was just talking about this last night on how saas tools are often black boxes ( Although they have a market fit depending where a company is on their scaling journey, as long as their willing to pay the scaling penalty later on )

@Sean Wang Absolutely. Kubernetes and containers are about standardization. So a no code cloud native platform can only operate within those standardization boundaries.

Personally, I believe in both since customers wanted to standardize everything, so they need gitops to integrate and standardize, and as they standardize things, they may need no-code to simplify.

@Vinothini Raju They sure can co-exist if the output of the actions of the no code platform gets turned into a gitops output, for example, let's say I create a kubernetes cluster using a no code UI but the actions it generates do not get committed to code, if the cluster gets destroyed I would potentially have to go back and build the cluster again using the UI, to me I think that would be a anti pattern, but no code platforms are great as front ends as long as the output gets captured into code, at least from a platform engineering standpoint.
