I have experience as a full stack developer, and as a machine learning engineer. I know C#, Java, Javascript, and Python. I have my own private AWS account. But I am a first time Saas founder. I’ll be doing the development myself. Should I use my existing skills to come up with my first product or should I learn no-coide tools? The reason I ask is no-code tools seem like they might be worth learning to spin up really quick MVPs. Thanks

    The low code advantage becomes much more marginal in your case. I’ve used these tools in the past and they have lots of dead-ends where you expect to be able to do something, and you just can’t.

    If low-code means you learn bubble in a week and can have a prototype in 2, versus just spinning up a simple JS prototype in a month, I’d go with the JS every time.

      Thats what I was thinking. I still have to learn some no code things for stuff like landing pages and email anyway though so I was thinking I may want to look at how people are building entire Saas with no code.
