As the industry grows, up-skilling talent to meet industry requirements will also be a game changer. “We have signed MOUs with leading Edtech companies, including our in-house firm TeamLease Ed-tech to help build the supply chain for LCNC. We are also looking at adopting non-engineering graduates, up-skilling and placing them as citizen developers in the LCNC space. Incidentally studies indicate that 70% of developers with no programming background have learnt to build applications on low-code platform in a month or less, whereas 28% learnt in just two weeks or less”, added Sunil.
Low-code/no-code development platforms are emerging as an alternative facilitator to fill the talent shortage that the industry is currently facing in terms of software developers. The platform also empowers both citizen and enterprise developers to connect and drag-and-drop application components to construct mobile or web apps in a massive way. LCNC is the future of software development as it has potential to improve development speed and productivity tremendously. It is also projected that by 2030, global LCNC development platform will generate $187 billion in revenue and account for more than 65% of application development activity.
