Yikes, I did not expect such strong opinions when I wrote this. Of course building an OS will always require coding, my point was that more usable front ends are replacing low-level coding projects. In the case of Zapier, instead of cobbling together APIs or hiring someone to do the same, I can use a drag and drop interface. Someone has to code for that to happen, but it isn't me anymore.
"Coding is dead" is obviously hyperbole. It would have been more accurate to call the article "Front end platforms are gradually replacing some light projects that previously would have required coding" but that didn't fit, so I went with the current title instead.
Like karamazov said, I'm not affiliated with DataNitro (except as a user), IFTTT, Zapier, or FRAPI, so please don't confuse my opinions with any of theirs. We are affiliated with Monetate, as I stated in the article, but I have no idea what they think of the article (and they probably disagree as much as everyone else seems to).
