I did receive off-list references to no-code and low-code offerings from
CNX Corp and Sencha, including a query utility, a data-file utility, and a
data-file app generator.

I pass along the reference, not to promote specific products, but to
consider the nature of no-code and low-code tooling. I tend to view such
utilities as supplementary to, rather than a basis for new business
application development.

Of the three tools referenced via private reply, the one that I viewed as
most likely to gain traction was the query utility because that is the type
of thing that shows up in RFPs on a fairly regular basis.

Data-file utilities may be productive for developers, but they're somewhat
a kin to torture for end-users; the templates that they are based on are
too primitive, and restrictive. There doesn't appear to be much (if any)
provision for data validation, referential integrity constraints, custom
business rules, and end-user error handling.
