> Are there any tools for visual software design and automatic deployment? Yes. Because of the behind the scenes complexity of designing stuff via visual methods/approaches, visual software design tends to be done for specific subject areas [1][2][3] Saving the design files to a network accessible location will "automatically" deploy the design. Although, "save/save as" means user determines overwrites / version distinctions. > ome UML tools are allegedly capable of bridging the gap between design and implementation, but as far as I know they do it by means of code generation, ummm..... hitting 'save' or 'save as' generates a form of code. Hypercard with files saved to a network accessible drive would seem to fit.
