Use low code to connect apps

Estimated Watching Time: 5 minutes

Many manufacturers rely on a software stack to implement digital transformation on the shop floor. Low-code applications let you connect your shop floor systems to create an integrated experience. This enables faster collaboration, breaks down data silos and improves efficiency across your business. Watch the video to get an idea of how this works.

Learn how Mendix connects software through low code development

The idea that you can connect your PLM, ERP, SAP and other software together in a single app sounds far-fetched for small and medium businesses. We’re accustomed to achieving our production goals despite these data silos. With Mendix, you can bring all these data sources together in a single dashboard – and it requires less development time than you would think!

Mendix is a low-code application development environment that leverages code blocks, visual editing and a guided experience to bring custom app development to every business. In this video, our team walks you through how to connect several apps in a single interface.

What is Mendix?

Rather than a technical coding environment, low-code operates in a model-driven, drag-and-drop interface. All development skill levels — professional developers, novice developers, subject matter experts, business stakeholders, and decision-makers — can use low-code to build value-driven enterprise business applications.

Low-code application development platforms (LCAPs) abstract and automate every step of the application lifecycle. Development is more accessible to users without technical expertise, with features that accelerate the development process.
