- I have found [Can we migrate office suite related questions to the Power Users community?](https://software.codidact.com/posts/281784), apparently, with a score of +7, 3 answers, but it looks like no decision have made so far.
- Despite not having taken a decision so far, that discussion makes me wonder if *end-user development* questions are on-topic here. I think that Software Development is not limited to questions from professional developers, so they should be on-topic while meeting the scope criteria.
- On the other hand, as it's allowed to have overlapping across Codidact communities, it should not be any problem to have questions related to spreadsheets (files, applications, formulas, etc.) here and on other sites like Power Users. Correct?

Another term, citizen developers, has been used to refer to non-professional software developers that embrace quests to achieve business goals like digital transformation powered by "low code / no code" platforms.

In a future discussion, I would also like to ask if the integration of no-code / low-code app through services like Zappier, Make, or Google Cloud Application Integration service could be considered on topic here.
