The simplest way, in my opinion, to explain this is with the help of the real estate world. Building with a code is like taking an empty lot where all you have is the area of land you bought or rented and on which you now need to build.
Strong foundations
You are responsible for the quality of the raw materials.
It’s solely yours
Cost is prohibitive and not always worth it.
It takes a long time to develop
Must have a construction specialist and, in many cases staff
In contrast, there is development without code, which is more construction than development. Here we do not come to an empty lot but an apartment building. We can rent an apartment, and we will design it however we want with a limited option for substantial changes like breaking walls.
There is an owner of the platform on which they are building, and support can be obtained
Construction cost is significantly lower than construction with a code (about a quarter of the price and even less)
High-speed construction relative to construction with a code (in less than a month, you can build almost any application)
Regular payment for packages on different platforms
Design-limited
Not suitable for use by large companies with thousands of users
In conclusion, I highly recommend working with code-free construction platforms for businesses (including freelancers) and medium-sized companies and building your startup prototype.
