I would absolutely love it if Microsoft developed a line of no-code (tiny-code?) tools for companies trying to build tech solutions. It would be great if we just had generic tech for generic business solutions so we didn't have to keep building software engineering teams to build the same god damn simple components over and over again. Imagine Terraform or ITTT using pre-made plugins and applications and some configuration language. You could download pre-made configuration for common solutions the way you load Resume templates in MS Office.

Imagine never having to actually build a microservice ever again, but just downloading and running some generic-microservice-app that loads plugins for whatever you need the microservice to do, and the only thing you'd have to "write" is 10 lines of business logic. Now imagine downloading a "template" of an entire B2B SaaS, and being able to tweak a couple lines and then run it in any cloud provider. You could launch a company over a weekend.
