I have experience as a full stack developer, and as a machine learning engineer. I know C#, Java, Javascript, and Python. I have my own private AWS account. But I am a first time Saas founder. I’ll be doing the development myself. Should I use my existing skills to come up with my first product or should I learn no-coide tools? The reason I ask is no-code tools seem like they might be worth learning to spin up really quick MVPs. Thanks

    I have 15 years of software development experience (same stack) and launched a B2B SaaS startup about 10 months ago. I do not recommend nocode/low code. I spent about 2 days playing with bubble before abandoning it for VS Code. I’ve built an entire platform in Azure consisting of Cosmos DB, a couple C# API’s and a couple C# Azure Functions. Hired a couple Upwork consultants to handle cloud infrastructure (Terraform) and front-end work. Development skills + AI will get you where you need to be quickly.

    Avoid low-code. AI makes it irrelevant IMO.
