The Future of Computing (is Here, Now)
Can you build a full-fledged scalable web application starting with little more then an excel file? Hard to believe, but it's possible - here, now.
Compile Squared is proud to announce a first of its kind pre-beta product, which generates and launches a complete web application. All you would do, as a user, would be to specify the schema in an excel file, and provide an optional excel file with sample data to be loaded into the database at startup.
In the time it takes to get a Starbucks coffee, you can have a fully functioning web application deployed and running.
Looking to the future - it's safe to say that 20 years from now, most developers will be using #lowcode code generators for development, just as programmers of today use high-level language compilers to generate assembly instead of starting with assembly code as in the early days of programming.
What does this mean for a startup or a company wanting to launch a new product? They get to leapfrog 6 months of time, 4-6 developers and $500K to $1M of cost in order to jumpstart their development.
Here's a 4 minute video to demo the pre-beta product:
