Low-Code/No-Code

"I read all of Phil's books. As a software developer coming of age in the 1980s and early 1990s, I fondly remember tools like DataFlex, Microsoft Access, and Clarion. Phil shows how today's citizen developers can use low-code/no-code software in amazing ways, while honoring the trajectory that got us here." -Brad Feld, partner at Foundry, co-founder Techstars, author, runner, reader, hermit, and nerd

"Low-Code/No-Code could not have arrived at a better time. Simon systematically identifies the most pressing issues that tech execs, app developers, and IT professionals face-and adeptly shows how to resolve them." -Gerald C. Kane, C. Herman and Mary Virginia Terry Chair in Business Administration, University of Georgia and coauthor of The Transformation Myth

"Take it from me: The demand for new internal apps and tech has only intensified, but software engineers are more difficult to recruit and retain than ever. Something has to give. Fortunately, Low-Code/No-Code shows the path forward: New tools let subject matter experts become citizen developers and shoulder a good deal of the development burden. Get this book." -Paul Maya, chief technology officer, United States Tennis Association

"Phil Simon skillfully introduces citizen developers and the world of low-code/no-code software. This timely book fuses examples, capabilities, and stats-and with a sense of humor to boot. The result is a delightfully easy read that left me informed and inspired. An essential text for any curious self-starter." -Denise Brouder, workplace futurist and founder at SWAY

"If you haven't heard of low-code/no-code yet, rest assured: You will soon. The revolution is here, but we need a guide to effectively navigate it. Phil Simon's latest book on workplace technology is just the ticket. Ignore this well-researched, exceptionally relevant, and downright inspiring book at your own peril."

-Matt Wade, consultant and author

"Once again, Phil Simon makes a critical and emerging technology trend accessible. Chief executives, department heads, and project managers are just some of the folks who will benefit from this opportune and important book." -Terri L. Griffith, Keith Beedie Chair in Innovation & Entrepreneurship, Simon Fraser University and author of The Plugged-In Manager

"In Low-Code/No-Code, Phil Simon shares how the emergence of the new way of coding came to be. He emphatically yet elegantly states why it's imperative for both large and small organizations need to start riding this wave today." -Mike Vardy, productivity strategist and creator of TimeCrafting

"Monkeys randomly hitting keys on a typewriter for an infinite amount of time will almost surely produce Hamlet. Now imagine what smart people equipped with amazing tools will produce. For a more concrete way to understand the power of low-code/no-code, read this important book." -Mike Schrenk, developer, consultant, and author

"As of now, the size of the low-code/no-code market is $15 billion-hefty, but a pittance compared to what it will soon become. I firmly believe that the next trillion-dollar company will be one of the existing no-code vendors that Phil Simon lists in his compelling new book. It is a must-read if you are interested in the future of software development." -Jon Darbyshire, CEO and co-founder, SmartSuite
