Professionelle Softwareentwicklung mit Low Code optimieren – eine Fallstudie

The ability to efficiently provide the required software applications is a critical success factor for companies today. This requires significant advances in productivity for professional application development; a solution to this is promised by so-called low-code platforms. The present case study compares two software development projects carried out with low code. Based on the expected low-code-driven optimization potentials, the factors ensuring the successful realization of these potentials in the projects are analyzed. Influencing factors identified include: the appropriate use of abstraction levels offered by the platform, the use of low-code-specific forms of collaboration, strategic platform positioning, the avoidance of static application scenarios, internal citizen development on the provider side and the right choice of platform.
