Abstract: A computer-implemented method comprises receiving source code for a user interface program, generating, using the source code, the user interface program, generating, using the source code, a faux backend program, and generate, using the source code, a skeleton Application Programming Interface (API) file. The user interface program and the faux backend program are capable of operating together as part of a test build. The skeleton API file provides a specification for an interface of production software suitable for replacing the faux backend, the specification including respective specifications for a plurality of API calls.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method is disclosed. The method includes operations of receiving user input, parsing the user input to extract keywords and the key phrases, categorizing at least a portion of the keywords and the key phrases, constructing a conceptual model based on at least a portion of the categorized keywords and the categorized key phrases, determining one or more constraints based on one or more of the user input or the conceptual model, and generating at least a first proposed user interface (UI) design using machine learning techniques, wherein the one or more constraints are provided as input to a trained machine learning model, wherein processing by the trained machine learning model generates at least the first proposed UI design. The method may include an additional operation of causing rendering of the first UI design on a display screen thereby enabling a user to visualize the first UI design.

Abstract: Authoring a user interface for a software product may include soliciting selection of an archetypal task from a creating user, soliciting, according to the selected archetypal task, constraints from the creating user, and generating user interface output files according to the constraints and the selected archetypal task. The user interface output files include mockups, design tool files, code, or combinations thereof. The constraints may include data types corresponding to conceptual objects, purposes of data types, end user goals, end user manipulation preferences, end user priorities. Authoring the user interface may further include suggesting to and eliciting selection by the creating user one or more interaction type.
