Citizen development empowers non-engineers to create their own tools, often generating innovative ideas that streamline workflows and boost productivity. However, without proper oversight, DIY development can lead to security gaps, inconsistent implementations, and unmaintainable apps. To take advantage of the benefits, it's essential to define what a citizen developer is, understand the advantages they offer, and learn how to get started with low-code or no-code tools like Superblocks. This platform allows developers to build with a visual builder, code, or AI, while maintaining scalability and security. With proper management, citizen-built apps can be scalable, secure, and maintainable, eliminating the risks of duplicate apps, security breaches, and backdoors. To succeed as a citizen developer, companies should set governance policies, restrict sensitive data access, and require IT reviews before deployment. By following these best practices and using platforms like Superblocks, teams can build internal tools quickly while giving IT full visibility and control.
