Codeless for developers

Choosing Codeless allows you to concentrate on your true strength: translating your customer's business logic into well-designed programs.

What is Codeless?

Codeless is a development platform that has been optimized for developers of administrative applications. Codeless does not force you to use programming code to write business logic, but employs a Model Driven Architecture. This principle enables Codeless to keep business logic completely separate from technical implementation and to develop each application only once - and then be able to use and modify it, without having to develop each application from scratch. It also makes it possible to use the application on any platform that has a codeless version available, without any additional investment of time and money. Simply install Codeless on the other platform and continue your development. Codeless allows you to offer customers many opportunities without the need for you to make further investments.

To enable developers to work with the Modeler Driven Architecture, Codeless has a specially designed development environment that includes a Modeler and a Designer.

Codeless Modeler

Developers insert their business logic in the modeler in the form of uml models. The model consists of a limited set of language elements, which makes it easy to master in a matter of days. This means less training time and no need to maintain cumbersome code. The models that substitute for the code are easier to understand and assess, allowing you to train your employees much faster and be productive sooner. Read more about the Codeless Modeler.

Codeless Designer

The Designer is a sophisticated WYSIWYG editor for developing program screens. It does not require any specific technical knowledge and can even be used by the customer. Read more about the Codeless Designer.

Codeless advantages

Codeless helps a developer of administrative applications concentrate on the logic rather than on specific functions because the Codeless platform has already integrated all features for an administrative application. It allows a developer to focus on translating the business logic of a customer to application logic. Rather than focusing on standard functionalities - filtering, importing, exporting, database connections, file upload, data grids, program defaults, custom menus, access rights, and locking - the developer can focus on the core of the problem. Because Codeless integrates features generically, every feature is available for every program ever made.

Turnover (savings) vs Cost

Codeless offers you even more opportunities for savings: as a development environment, Codeless is free of charge. Because you don't need to invest a great deal of money in the tools, the risk is minimal. License fees are only charged after you have fully developed the application for your client.

As a developer, you are able to take advantage of:

  • Shorter training period because of fewer language elements
  • Availability of standard software models
  • Shorter production processes
  • Increased efficiency
  • Easy-to-adapt software
  • Up-to-date documentation
  • Highly scalable environment
  • Automatic availability of new features for every program developed using the codeless platform - no need to modify current programs, because these features will work automatically.

You should choose Codeless if

  • You want to develop or deliver better applications in less time.
  • You want to move to a windows platform, but do not have the time or budget to train your employees in new programming languages.
  • You have a great deal of domain expertise, but do not have the time or budget to train your employees in new programming languages.
  • You want to focus on translating the business logic to application logic
  • You do not have Microsoft.net programmers readily available, but do want to develop Microsoft.net applications.
