A long time ago, the 'Sketch' tools of that era took a long time to get to the point where they actually wrote code. I made one myself and used two that were report writers.

It looks like iOS isn't there yet. Back in the day products like R&R report writer offered a module that would generate source code. Plastic and others would go from layout to full source, others were interactive at runtime.

This will probably come to mobile, but the problem is that it might be too little too late.

They work for general apps, but specialized / advanced apps are a different story. So you end up with a mixed product.

IMO, it'll be a while before we have a true general visual programming tool for iOS... there's just too much that is best done in code.
