These past few weeks have been incredibly busy. I actually didn’t have a chance to post anything last week because of the busy schedule of developing. That and the six-week old addition to my family. This last week however proved to be one of the most fruitful. Not only am I gathering requirements, designing solutions, developing and deploying at an unprecedented rate using Mendix, but I slowed down long enough to actually use the application. The insight was invaluable and something I’m going to spend a few minutes describing so that you, too, will remember how important this is.
Rapid App Development
All IT leaders face challenges of outdated technology. Sometimes it’s time to build or buy a new application. But nowadays, it might make more sense to refresh the new old one. I explore those challenges and provide real client examples where I’ve used low code to help in both cases.
Rapid App Development
I share my thoughts on the recent acquisition of AppGyver by SAP and how that does or doesn’t relate to their SOLEX partner, Mendix.
Rapid App Development
The world is battling a war on two fronts: our health is threatened by COVID-19 and our economies have slowed and even stopped in certain sectors. As an App Developer, does my work really matter in such times?
Rapid App Development
After years of delivering, leading, and coaching leaders in Rapid App Development, I give you my perspective on what skills and profile it takes to be a ‘Great’ RAD Maker.
Mendix
It’s been 1 year since I first wrote the post, “Extending SAP: Fiori or Mendix?” and a lot has changed. Because of the changes, this older post has gotten a lot of renewed interest so I thought I would take a look at my opinions from a year ago and see if they differ. If you haven’t already, please refer to the original article to have context for this one.
IT should be an expert “SWAT” team with precise skills to tackle the toughest app challenges, not a bottleneck to solving business problems.
