Was chatting with a friend today and was finally able to vocalize one of the big things that's been nibbling at my brain.

When it comes to building mobile apps, where is our equivalent of Wordpress or Shopify or Drupal? Why is it that every single app must start over from "Hello world" and build from there?

@davedelong I’d say a few things: Are the ‘web native wrapper’ frameworks ostensibly this (React Native, etc)?

Also, didn’t Apple explicitly forbid ‘fill in the blank’ white-label apps? (Apps that were pretty generic but could be used to have mom-and-pop companies create custom native apps by plugging in their data/graphics)
