๐Ÿš€ Awesome Low-Code/No-Code Platforms

Awesome GitHub stars GitHub contributors PRs Welcome License: MIT Forks Issues Last Commit

A comprehensive, curated list of low-code and no-code platforms that are revolutionizing how we build applications, automate workflows, and create digital solutions.


๐ŸŽฏ What is Low-Code/No-Code?

Low-Code/No-Code platforms are transforming software development by enabling rapid application creation with minimal or zero traditional programming. These platforms use visual development interfaces, drag-and-drop components, and declarative configurations to democratize software creation.

๐ŸŽจ Low-Code Platforms

  • Require minimal coding knowledge
  • Offer visual development interfaces
  • Allow custom code integration
  • Target professional developers and power users

๐Ÿ–ฑ๏ธ No-Code Platforms

  • Require zero programming knowledge
  • Completely visual/configuration-based
  • Pre-built components and templates
  • Target business users and citizen developers

๐Ÿ“ˆ Why Low-Code/No-Code?

๐Ÿš€ 10x faster development
๐Ÿ’ฐ 80% cost reduction
๐Ÿ‘ฅ Bridge the developer shortage
๐Ÿ”ง Rapid prototyping & iteration
๐Ÿ“ฑ Cross-platform deployment
๐ŸŽฏ Focus on business logic, not boilerplate
