I agree with this. I do wonder if low/no-code products will ever become good enough that you'd feel comfortable actually using one. I believe a part of this is having infrastructure/system that can describe itself in sufficient detail. Then the ability to modify itself with sufficient variety. Fundamentally I've seen ORMs/APIs/integrations that are more or less a crap shoot as to whether or not they're going to work, god forbid if a version of something is upgraded. The fallibility of it all will prevent this from happening.

they totally will... but it's probably going to show up the way you would expect it to... some open source project will get really good at helping you configure 95% of your app with a CLI or something... then you'll mod some methods etc. Eventually that will transform into something that can predict what you'll need.

IMO stuff like serverless, OpenAPI, some of the boilerplates out there, etc are already heading in that direction. It used to take me a week to build a standard CRUD API with a handful of models, now I can do it circa 15-30min.
