Real Thoughts from a Product Manager at a Major Manufacturer: A Product Journey in the Age of Low-Code

In this fast-changing technology era, as a product manager at a major manufacturer, I am deeply impressed that low-code platforms are changing the way we work. Today, I'd like to share some thoughts on low-code and some of my personal experiences with it.

What is a low code?

Low-code is the use of visual development tools to simplify the application development process. In short, you don't need in-depth programming skills to create complex applications. This is both a challenge and an opportunity for product managers like me. Think about it, in the past we usually had to rely on development teams, but now we can build and iterate on products ourselves with low-code platforms.

Advantages of low code

Personally, I think the biggest advantage of low-code platforms is their flexibility and efficiency. For example, I recently used a low-code tool on a project. Not only did this tool allow me to quickly prototype my designs, but it also allowed for real-time collaboration within the team. Whereas I once had to repeatedly juggle between development cycles and user feedback, I can now roll out reliable prototypes in a short period of time and respond quickly to market needs.

Hands-on: from theory to practice

At one point, my team needed to launch a customer feedback management system in a short period of time. At first, everyone thought it would take weeks of development. But I proposed to try a low-code solution. After just a few days of hard work, my team and I managed to create a basic system. What's more exciting is that after the launch, the user feedback was more positive than expected.

Challenges encountered

Of course, low code is not without its challenges. Choosing the right platform is critical when using such tools. I once tried a highly respected low-code tool, but its overly complex flexibility slowed down the progress of our project. Therefore, when choosing a tool, it is important to consider not only the functionality, but also evaluate its learning curve and the team's ability to adapt.

future outlook

Going forward, I believe low-code will continue to play an increasingly important role in product development. For several startups and small teams, low-code not only accelerates products to the shelves, but also enables rapid iteration with limited resources. I'm looking forward to exploring more possibilities in this area and working with different teams to create more innovative and user-friendly products.

concluding remarks

In short, low-code offers a fresh perspective on product development. I'm excited to find my place in this trend and look forward to sharing more of my experiences and reflections with you. I hope these observations of mine will inspire you to grow together in this transformative field.
