I've seen a fair number of Access applications that were rewritten simply because they need to work in a web browser. They were otherwise fine.

The system I worked on was specialised but highly capable - it could build applications that are very very hard to get right in PHP (but easy to get kind-of-right-if-you-squint).

What I would really love to see is a top class open source Low Code platform; I believe that it could provide a very nice tool of entry to software development, especially for adults.
