Introducing AI-Assisted Development to Elevate Low-Code Platforms to the Next Level

Abstracting away low-level infrastructure by one-click deployment and automatically provisioning the entire stack to run an application. Abstraction and automation are only possible if we come up with common patterns and turn these patterns into a single concept. Developers will lose some flexibility, but gain a lot of speed and don't have to know about the underlying details. My job with the Mendix R&D team is to find the right patterns to include in our platform and to balance speed, ease-of-use, flexibility, and control. The result should be that we continuously improve the productivity of a broad spectrum of developers. It is easy to say that everyone needs to contribute to software because it is the core of the business, but how do we get all these people started and productive? That's where Machine Learning comes into play in the form of AI-assisted development. It is the logical next step for low-code platforms as it adds the next level of abstraction and automation.
