It's definitely no code. I built some dynamic pages of my service to manage data with it that are all HTML markup and JSON. I would have used it for all pages if I had created the components earlier.

HTML is markup, not code. JSON is object notation, not code. I used very little code to build my service. I think this type of highly flexible low-code is the right path to no-code.

I know from experience that people with zero tech knowledge can be taught HTML and CSS in a few weeks.

They most definitely are code. They are not programming languages, and writing them is not 'programming', but they are still code.
