No! Interface Builder produces the HTML of Cocoa development. When Shaun Inman does some whizbang fancy rich web development, does he insist that the body of the HTTP Response contain nothing but code: <!doctype html><html><head><script> ... </script></head><body></body></html> Of course he doesn't write a ton of shitty procedural client-side code to slowly build up the DOM programatically -- the browser gets a clean independent serialization, with bindings to code for events on elements. This is exactly how Cocoa works. Interface Builder doesn't generate bolierplate code like nearly every other GUI designer ever to exist -- it instantiates objects and serializes them.
