Thank you for your insights & appreciate the suggestions!

We absolutely agree that a large part of the value prop is about the ease of the project setup and deployment rather than just simplifying the coding process.

That said, we do believe that the visual aspect brings benefits to backend development as well. While traditional coding requires a level of abstract thought to envisage data flow and logic, visual tools offer a concrete representation that can make this process more intuitive. This can help developers to better understand and manage complex workflows, data relationships, and API structures, which in turn can boost productivity and reduce errors.

Additionally, our hypothesis is that it offers a way for non-technical team members like PM & BI roles or even clients, to contribute more effectively. By visualizing workflows, logic, and data models, people can improve communication, minimize misunderstandings, and contribute to a better final product.

However if you still prefer coding, we have a Custom Code Action on the roadmap that will let you do exactly that and still benefit from some of the guardrails we provide.
