I finally arrive in Germany, a country comparable to France in size so I'm quite curious to see what is the local no-code scene like. On Twitter, several people pointed me towards VisualMakers.de, a company run by Lilith Brockhaus and Alexander Sprogis. I decided to head first to Cologne where Lilith is currently living so that she can tell everything about what they are doing, what led her to no-code and the local scene.
