Ask HN: Problems worth solving with a low-code back end?
Drag and Drop Visual Programming Language, the click of a button is interpreted as a source of an object stream. Think packet oriented programming, of reactive functional programming, or RxJs, or Node-RED.
To answer your question: you evaluate a low-code builder by the ease with which it can generate entire website applications. And by generate, I mean code generation as well, because you want these programs to emit beautiful code that is indistinguishable from hand made code. For code generation see yeoman, especially AST parsing and that nifty var function: https://yeoman.io/
And of course any one of the 5 above is a good test, but all 5 in harmony are better.
As to non-visual/tui tools, its bash. shells are low code tools take a look:

Get rid of Copy/Paste with Plop Js!
Plop js actually allows us to create the structures that we have previously created templates on cli via command. It does this in a very simple way. I can give hygen and yeoman as an alternative to plop js. I plan to write content about these libraries in the future.

Modern VS Code extension development tutorial: Building a secure extension
You use them to install Yeoman and the VS Code Extension Generator. This generator creates a frame (scaffold) for your extension so you don't have to write everything from scratch. If you elect to build your project using TypeScript (recommended for this blog), it's recommended that you install the TypeScript + Webpack Problem Matcher to make it easier to find and match coding errors.

FSF: Chrome’s JPEG XL killing shows how the web works under browser hegemony
If you are wondering about performance cost please take a look here, especially the last comment. https://github.com/yeoman/yeoman/issues/810 . With the advent of http2 and http3 the tcp connection is never reset and in http 3 the browser can always stop and resume the image loading without throwing the current progress away. FB, Google, Shopify, Reddit and many others are all using webp which doesn't support progressive rendering and I am sure at their scale they have at least million site visits with slow network and they are doing fine.
