Are No Code web apps biased towards developers and designers?

I’m a front end web designer and use Elementor, Divi and Webflow for my clients websites. These themes / web builders are extremely powerful and versatile. They are great for professional designers like myself but what about the everyday person and non-technical business owners? Even the market leaders like Wix and Squarespace require a lot of technical knowledge and time. I’ve spent years working with and using many No Code web apps and I feel they are all heavily biased towards the technical user. What do you think? AMA…

I agree, I've been a bubble developer for 5 years now. I was using Wordpress, Elementor, Divi, etc before that. Although having that knowledge helped to transition into nocode. I wouldn't have if I didnt. I think many nocode platforms cater to different levels of technical capabilities. If you have zero technical knowledge. Bubble is very hard to learn. Thats not the case for platforms like Elementor and Squarespace. They are relatively easy to learn. Each platforms suits someone a different way.

@chirag_dodiya you make some excellent points. Thanks for taking time to reply. Obviously Squarespace is aimed at the non techy but it’s still pretty tricky to use because of the abundance of options (can get confusing). Elementor I do feel you really need to be a designer or have a reasonable level of technical knowledge. Do you think there’s a gap in the market for this I’m working on? https://webwizod.com
