Why Entrepreneurs Should Learn To No-Code Instead of “Learn to Code”
It’s time to put critical and creative coding concepts ahead of syntax and rote memorization
“Learn to code” has been a refrain for entrepreneurs for more than a decade.
Want to start a business in the high-growth universe of venture capital windfalls and IPO fortunes? Learn to code.
Have a modest idea for a digital product? Learn to code.
Want your business to survive into the mid-21st century? Learn to code.
Why?
Because modern e-commerce demands new and ever-changing technology.
Because television commercials have been replaced by TikTok clips.
Because no matter how good your idea is, there’s probably already an app for that.
I believe all of that.
I am indeed a coder, and I firmly believe that learning to code should be a part of everyone’s education. This isn’t a rant against learning to code; it’s a call to replace the “Learn to Code” movement with “Learn to No-Code.”
