I build one of these visual frameworks too (https://www.ondiagram.com/) and I agree completely with the author.

People think it's a good idea because it will save them time and I get many messages about different questions, use cases and support but the reality is you trade convenience for risk that something will be missing. What most people really want is a boilerplate for the SaaS, some building blocks for their UI and to not think about deployments.

VCs love this too, and many reach out, especially a couple of years ago. Maybe they know something I don't, maybe it was just phase.
