Why retool? That’s way too complex for someone who can’t code. Better start with something more NoCode and then figure a way to move to low code

I think no-code tools end up teaching people a new, crappy programming language expressed via UI. It's a coding alternative, not coding appetizer.

Retool is very low-code if you're mostly hitting APIs and/or have someone to help you with initial transformational, and it ultimately using text/code to wire things together.
