Do not agree, when you have some regular task that you run it many, many times it's may be better to drag and drop some icon and connect icons by some arrow. You may say that if you have to repeat some action so write library and reuse it many times. That what I said to my coworkers when I tried to convince then do not use talend (only OFL - "one finger language" :-) that I know). I have too much to say about talend but do not want waste time for it. IMHO new generation (I see it on my sons) is less "natural" with "text" as way to pass information. For me "text" was almost only way to know new things and learn. Now "text" go down and replaced by visual forms of information: movies instead of stories, slides and visual lectures instead of books, ... I think that what is faster for you and me will not be faster for new programmers. thanks Pinkhas Nisanov
