    Yea, this really resonates, Ben. Especially when "Make a deck" is in pursuit of venture capital. I've been down that path and it is not for the faint of heart. And even if you're planning on fundraising, it's going to be a lot easier if you've already got a product (no-code or otherwise) and customers.

    Ideally yes. But it is not alway possible to do nocode

      everything depends. but curious on what situations wouldn't allow for using no-code tools.
