Hi Jason,
I don't have a background in IT and I found it quite easy to learn the basics of Mendix (of course I am still learning, but the basics came pretty quickly).
What I like the most is the visual representation of logic in microflows and xpaths. Simply go to your domain model, follow associations to where you need something and write it in your xpaths :) also like how you can see which options are available for use in your logic.
I still have difficulty figuring out how to use REST services effectively and read those made by others, but I haven't tried REST in the newer mendix versions yet.
