Description
As the rapidly expanding digital transformations at multiple organizations require development of growing number of software solutions, low code development platforms (LCDPs) started to be widely used by pretrained business users, in such use-cases as process automation and rapid application development. Our study explores the challenges of LCDPs use for developers, by investigating 30 000 of their posts at one of the most prominent fora StackOverflow. It is conducted with text-mining approaches, primarily Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA), aiming to identify challenges for users of LCDPs. As they were from the areas of visualization, third-party integration, database and table management, datatype conversion, programming languages, and file handling, we further discussed them to propose possible enhancements for users of LCDPs.
