One of the engineering leaders at my company was big on Retool and it was pushed out as a way for backend developers to write frontend code.

Now 6 months later that leader is gone, developers realized applications in Retool are harder to maintain because it’s just spaghetti code with no type safety or proper code review and teams are moving back to internal React applications.

You could build a much nicer user experience with react and make a maintainable codebase.

I think the promise of no-code making it easier for users to contribute is not reality.
