I think things evolve in a spiral, where old ideas are recycled with a twist that makes them more appealing.

The tools before the mobile era, the canceled Adobe Thermo (aka Flash Catalyst), Microsoft Expression Blend, and recently Framer (which now is a website creation tool like Webflow), tried to fill the gap between design, prototyping, and implementation. But, they failed because web frameworks move fast, and nobody wants a vendor lock-in of unmaintainable code.

Maybe the Figma killer finally finds a way to solve it in a way that makes designers and developers happy.
