I do prefer no code. It’s very fast to develop and test an idea. The downside is that you’re stuck with your provider.

Regular code all the way - gives you a lot more control and flexibility if you need to update something for your customers!

It kinda depends on what your objectives are with the MVP and the stage your startup is on. If you're just starting off as a founder and want to validate an early stage idea, going with a No code solution might be your best bet for moving quickly. On the other had, once you have enough validations for your idea and want to now go full in, would suggest to go with regular code. It gives you more flexibility to iterate quickly, add capabilities and would definitely pay off in the long run. One of the other options is to consider using No Code solutions like ReTool or Frontly https://www.producthunt.com/post... for internal apps and go with regular code for customer facing apps.
