Opinion.

Code to low code to no code.

A code can be converted to a low code. A low code can be migrates towards no code.

That's an ideal world scenario. These platforms and other platforms out there are heavily tightly coupled between front-end and backend hence making them unclean.

Why unclean? Migrating a code based builder(IDE) to a low code based builder (GUI with confoguration) to a no code based builder (DRAG AND DROP) ultimately towards design to code builders.

Unfortunately there isn't any.

Here is how I made my statements above.

An app is a giant state of rectangles of content with show or hide configuration. Each state is followed by an user interaction.

Now the problem is reduced to a UI.

How about building an UI that builds UI?

I have few things documented in past commits of my project called ui-editor.

I stopped working on it publicly due to time consumption of new commits. You can find the wiki or the read me in pat commits.

https://github.com/imvetri/ui-editor.

My opinion, those products don't scale or not maintainable in long run. Because those apps or the builders are code based. To have a clean solution! The builder should be a no code in first place.
