Part - 01: App Engine Studio Vs Creator Studio

[Community Alums]

ServiceNow App Engine Studio and Creator Studio are both powerful platforms for building and automating workflows and applications

Creator Studio: Create intelligent workflows in a guided, curated, no-code environment. Reduce app development from days to minutes

App Engine Studio: Fuel business growth with a low-code visual app environment. Engage developers of all skill levels. Create from scratch or templates.

Here's a quick comparison of both on the following 5 key aspects #features

1. Target Audience
2. Interface
3. Developer Experience
4. User Experience
5. Collaboration

Note:

#CreatorStudio is not intended to replace the existing application development solution. Rather, it complements the ServiceNow Application Development tools by introducing new capabilities and streamlining the app development process for NO-CODE developers and process owners.

I Hope this document provides a clearer understanding of the scope of #AES and #CreatorStudio.
