I agree 100%, I want a drag-n-drop* but every single one has not met the expectations.

* what I want now is a little more and a product I plan to move from prototype to production soon (tm)

As I said in a peer comment, I get the game engine analogy, it's close, but there are enough differences that it doesn't carry enough weight to make it a point of justification. They've also had over a decade plus to develop and get lots of complaints. But note, there are 2-4 options in the game dev space, because it is so hard to build a compelling experience. Low code. / drag-n-drop is littered with shitty products and race to the bottom competitors. Also, my statements can generalize to DnD based solutions for more than frontend, to things like node red, iffft, zapier et al

Since Excel is on the front of HN, I'm reminded that Excel is the OG and most successful low code product in history
