Combining Code-Centric,Low code/No code and AI CodeGen Perspectives.

  In Solvent we are focused on effectively combining the following modes for authoring web apps: Code-Centric Lowcode/No code AI CodeGen/Assist In this post we are going to touch on and showcase degrees of freedom as a requirement for fully realizing the benefits of combining these modes/perspectives. Degrees of freedom Degrees of freedom as meant here refers to the flexibility of actions a user/worker has when trying to complete a given task. The more complex a task is, the more a user/worker benefits from having  higher degrees of freedom. Think of a construction worker working on a large building. When they are working on the ground floor, they typically have the most degrees of freedom, as they climb to higher floors, they lose more degrees of freedom. They have a number of options at their disposal with different profiles for gaining degrees of freedom:   The Ladder If they use a simple ladder, they have the least degrees of freedom, meaning they have to climb to eve...

Declarative Programming With AI/LLMs

  What Is Declarative Programming Broadly speaking, there are two ways to program/instruct a computer to perform a task, they are imperative vs declarative programming. Imperative programming is what we do the most, we write all the code necessary for the computer to perform a task such that the only thing left for the computer to do is fetch and execute CPU instructions. If you are using Java,C#, Javascript...etc you are doing imperative programming. Declarative programming is a higher-order form of programming, we instruct the computer to perform a task but otherwise let it "figure out" how to do it. Declarative programming requires some sort of software based execution engine. Whereas with imperative programming our code gets compiled into some machine/byte code and then run by the CPU, declarative programming requires a layer of software that does the "magic" that allows you to use it without having to write the precise logic for completing tasks.  I would guess...
