New comment by milansuk in "Show HN: ChangeOver – A new IDE"

The current version of ChangeOver is like an assembler! I had to go through this painful process to build "base" version. I understand you. What you're seeing right now is just point&click GUI, relational database and point&click programming with REPL. Nothing new. But there will be a lot more. Today's IDEs can finish the words(sometimes lines) for you. ChangeOver will finish your algorithms. Try imagine two cloud apps side by side and you just connect them without using APIs or some 3rd party services like Zapier. And more.

I believe that everyone wants to make their ideas real. And sure, there will be always incidental complexity and people will suffer a little bit. Today's platforms don't really have IDEs, they just tell you: give us file with javascript/python/etc.. Web, Mobile and Desktop apps are mostly fixed for end-user. That's why I really like PowerPoint for it's all in one(run/browse presentation, but also create/edit). Of course, presentations have limited use-cases.

What we need is a new "standard". People don't put Excel on their CVs anymore, because everyone knows it. When you have a problem with a spreadsheet you don't call MS technical support or outsource it like a web development, but you solve it inside the company. Web or WordPress are probably still too complicated.
