We wouldn’t make applications. Rather we’d deliver components which could interoperate via a binary contract.
Components would be “snapped” together by non-programmers to make an application.
I suppose that pieces of this became true with the proliferation and adoption of open source. Rather than a binary protocol, HTTP came out on top.
SharePoint brought us WebParts which tried to put the power in the hands of business users, but it turned out they were still too technical and not flexible enough.
I don’t see the role of software developer/engineer going away anytime soon.
