No-code development is a type of web development that allows non-programmers and programmers to create software using a graphical user interface instead of writing code.
The no-code movement rests upon the fundamental belief that technology should enable and facilitate the creation, not be a barrier to entry.

(I got the introductory sentence from this blog by Webflow. Read here)
The no-code movement, in short, is to make programming accessible to everyone.
Thus, even non-technical people can create applications.
One of the main starting points is for the competent person to write the program suitable for him.
People who do not have a background in a particular profession may not know enough about the profession's difficulties; if a competent person writes their program, they can construct many points much more accurately.
Let's give the floor to Emmanuel Straschnov to complete the sentences.
50 years from now, I can’t imagine people programming as we do today. It just can’t be. The future I imagine is a world in which programming is self-explanatory, where people talk to computers to build software. To get there, programming tools should first use our language. For instance, to turn a button red, we shouldn’t have to write code. We should just be able point to the button and select a shade of red. Instead of talking about concepts the computer cares about (like variables and servers), programming tools should talk about things the programmer cares about (an image or a cloth order).
This could change everything in the way we live. With more accessible programming, farmers could program robots to intelligently tend crops based on local soil conditions; teachers could build software to adjust their teaching based on what happened the day before around the school; chefs could set up systems to buy fresh fish from the nearby market in real time as people place orders. However, that won’t happen if farmers, teachers or chefs have to learn code to do it, because it’s not their expertise. Instead, programming tools should be able to speak like a chef, to a chef. Software tools should be created by their users, because their users know their needs better than anyone else. A software engineer will never know cooking as well as a chef does. Teaching people how to code to turn them into engineers is not the solution.
