If your program does not deal with business rules and data access then it is probably a single-user program (that does not need authentication).&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;m over-simplifying of course, but these things sound simple until you ask all the &amp;quot;but-then&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;what-if&amp;quot;. If someone actually makes them simple in a way that still lets me cover those cases I&amp;#x27;ll be the first to stop writing authN&amp;#x2F;authZ code.</text><parent_chain><item><author>sbacic</author><text>I think that the whole discussion around low-code is missing a pretty fundamental issue: most programming libraries suck.&lt;p&gt;If I need, say, authentication, why do I need to install a library and then read a bunch of documentation on how to use it?

You could release one library for authentication that works for one specific use case, but it would be useless for all others.</text><parent_chain><item><author>sbacic</author><text>I think that the whole discussion around low-code is missing a pretty fundamental issue: most programming libraries suck.&lt;p&gt;If I need, say, authentication, why do I need to install a library and then read a bunch of documentation on how to use it?
