So far without a source

A GUI builder or GUI designer or GUI editor is a programming tool that simplifies the creation of graphical user interfaces by allowing the designer to arrange control elements using a WYSIWYG editor via drag and drop . Without a GUI builder, the parameters of each control element have to be specified manually through programming , without receiving any feedback about the appearance of the program before execution.

User interfaces are usually created using event-driven programming , so GUI builders also simplify the creation of event-driven code. This supporting code connects the controls with the outgoing and incoming events, which trigger functions of the application logic .
