Designers can do that in PowerPoint for presentations or mockups.
There is also Adobe Edge for the web and theme designers like Divi in Wordpress.

The problem for designers is that you're asking them to mentally translate from a medium they're good at (visual) to a textual medium. But we've had GUI tools for making visual stuff for several decades now.
The web is behind on this front, even though companies have tried to make things like Dreamweaver, Flash Designer, Frontpage and Edge. With gaming, you have Unity. A lot of desktop software has layout managers and visual tooling.
It's kind of silly to expect designers to want to work with a textual format in 2018. Smalltalk came out in the 70s.
