When NOT to use flow-like
Constraint-first guidance from category fit and live maintenance signals - not marketing copy.
- - Not recommended if your preferred programming language is not Rust, as it is built with strong Rust dependencies
- - If you are seeking a low-code or no-code solution, Flow-Like may require significant code customization which might be less suitable for non-developer users
