Depends on the RAD or CASE tool you use. Some actually generate very robust and efficient code. Granted, some generate crap that is bloated and very fragile, but some do not.
To everyone else, this is hardly a breakthrough. All that this thing does is generate the screens and controls. It does not do 95% of the programming as in what a button does or what a data element is and what to do with it. There are tools that will do 80% of the programming, leaving you 20% to write.
“The presentation layer is *not* a complete application system.”
So the theory here is that this “revolutionary” code-writing software could be fed a few screenshots from amazon.com and then it could output the entire amazon.com software?
uh, yeah.
i’ve written software for nearly 50 years now, and am still doing it, so i find these kinds of “breakthrough”, “revolutionary” miracle auto-coding systems nearly as amusing as “breakthrough”, “revolutionary” miracle battery “technology”.
