This paper explores the synergies between low-code platforms and traditional development methodologies, proposing a hybrid model that leverages the strengths of both to improve development efficiency and product quality.

Abstract

The integration of low-code platforms with traditional software engineering practices presents a transformative approach to agile development. Low-code platforms enable rapid application development through visual interfaces and minimal coding, fostering increased collaboration and faster time-to-market. However, challenges such as limited customization and potential technical debt necessitate the involvement of experienced software engineers. This paper explores the synergies between low-code platforms and traditional development methodologies, proposing a hybrid model that leverages the strengths of both. We examine case studies where this integration has led to improved development efficiency and product quality, and discuss best practices for implementing this combined approach in agile environments.
