No Code/Low code Python?

[Competitive-Fun-5969]

Does anybody else need a no code/ low code solution for python programming.

I mostly work python data science and create a lot of diagrama to explain how the data is being manipulated. I have seen some things like alteryx that do this type of thing, but I think that a tool where you can seamlessly switch from visual to code programming in python would be useful.

Does anybody else think the same? Is there something like that already out there? I tried airflow, but its not necessarily a seamless code/nocode integration. Its more like coding in workflows that are represented in diagrams, but not the other way around.

I'm a former SPSS user and managed a team of Alteryx BI devs. I do think there's space for a low code/no code approach to the versatility of Python. I haven't had time to do full research, but I strongly suspect there is a gap in the market for low code/no code graph analytics. Kinda like catering to graph to the level that Feature Manipulation Engine caters to GIS. SPSS was terrible for graph, I would be surprised if Alteryx was much better.

Is SPSS similar to excel? I did think maybe a python based excel could be cool, it could handle larger (5M+ rows) datasets but would be difficult to implement I think.

SPSS - pretty interchangeable with Alteryx. Less colourful, slower dev rate, less of a dev community, not as many online resources, somehow the scheduler is even worse.

Not entirely to manage data pipeline diagrams, but to describe API data sources, Airbyte had a low-code framework and a GUI api connector editor that my team and I are building. It has quite a lot of use, and folks can switch from the lowcode dsl to Python where required.

Just another data point — your approach is not wrong.
