Yeah, same here - I was exploring this area last year in a few different ways [0]. I think it was still early then, but with GraphQL, DataScript, React Native, etc. I think we're really getting close to some very, very powerful tools for UI. A lot of the backend can be removed, and focus can go into the frontend (to some extent, obviously).

I'm so excited with the technology coming out of facebook right now, imo it's the best possible way they can attract new developers. I can't wait for react native to come out for android so I can start playing with it!

I really think this has the potential to be something of a game changer. One of my pet favorite libraries is sqlAlchemy (python ORM) and I really want to write a server for graphql that automatically generates api routes for a sqlalchemy mapped schema!

Something similar (in terms of interface) https://vimeo.com/128038818 https://vimeo.com/128038770

There are a lot of such tools which allow to create a layout of your pages. In case of builder you should consider page as a desk for combining components into some composition which you will reuse as a component itself. So, there is very small similarity - only because you can copy/paste/delete some components.

Your tool looks awesome! Yes there are lots of such tools.I should have worded mine as 'something along the lines of ...' instead of saying that its similar.
