Mendix for someone with no coding background?

Hi,

Our company is looking for someone that is willing to dive into Mendix for a customer project, however our developers have barely any interest in it.

So how how feasible is Mendix for someone with no coding background ? I only know some programming principles on a rudimentary level. Understanding complex Algorithms, functions etc. are something I struggle with.

I am not confident enough to think I can learn all that in half a year and give a proper training workshop right away.

Thx for the answers in advance.
