Low-code is a modern approach to software development and has grown rapidly in recent years. By hiding complexity behind layers of abstraction, it allows inexperienced developers to create complex applications in a shorter amount of time. This thesis sets out to evaluate the current state of low-code as well as a few of the available low-code development platforms and how well their finished applications perform.
A simple order management system was implemented in three low-code development platforms, Mendix, OutSystems, and Airtable, in order to gain experience in all of them. The platforms were then evaluated with respect to user experience and performance. The created applications load time and memory usage were measured in three different tests.
It was found that there are plenty of low-code platforms that exist for different purposes, and that they all have their own learning curve depending on how flexible they aim to be. The performance of their respectively created applications is also similar to each other, with the only major differences being by design
