Low-code/no-code software development is an emerging approach delivering the opportunity to build software with a minimal need for manual coding and enhancing the involvement of non-programmers in software development. Low-code principles allow enterprises to save time and costs through a more rapid development pace and to improve software products quality by bringing closer together business and information technologies as well as promoting automation. Nevertheless, the low-code/no-code approach is a relatively new and continuously progressing domain that requires understanding of existing challenges and identification of improvement directions. In this paper, challenges in the low-code software development process and suggestions for their mitigation are identified and amalgamated with the purpose to deliver insights into the current state of the low-code/no-code development process and identify areas for further research and development.
