Odoo Studio is a very useful tool that is available in Odoo Enterprise. It was introduced in Odoo 10, but with only limited functionality, and every new release since then has seen improvements.

You can use it in several ways, including:

1. Developing a small application
2. Prototyping
3. Learning more about the Odoo architecture and functionality

You need some technical knowledge to use Odoo Studio, but you do not need to do programming.

You should have some understanding of relational databases, but if you are familiar with any ERP system (or other business applications) this shouldn’t be difficult. More details on the Odoo database

If you plan to create a new application it can be helpful to find similar functionality in Odoo, and study that first (and Odoo Studio can help you do that!).
