The problem with these novel ideas is two-fold:<p>1) The market it appeals to would rather just write the code themselves (programmers don&#x27;t seem to like drag and drop tools - or so I am told)<p>2) The technology behind them is chosen through flavour-of-the-year&#x2F;month<p>- If this was 2013, it would have been some other JS library instead of React.<p>--------------------------------<p>A better solution would be to create a CRUD-generator in the raw languages themselves that can kick-start or help get MVPs out a lot quicker than normal (or basically eliminate the need of &quot;I need a tech-guy to build my idea&quot; part of starting a startup).<p>Eg. you have an application that is drag-and-drop-like that generates pure Python-3 for the backend and pure ES6 for the frontend and moves along with these languages (and not tied to any framework).<p>The only catch is that it will appeal to a small market and will never be something you can comfortably make money from.<p>As long as the generated-code is &#x27;good&#x27;, the project will live on for years.
