AI Generated Native Apps: Can Tools Like Area30 Really Replace Early Dev Work?

I have been spending some time experimenting with a new wave of AI powered app builders and wanted to open a genuine discussion with the Product Hunt community around where this space is actually heading.

Recently, I tested a tool called Area30.app. The core idea is simple but ambitious. You describe a mobile app idea in plain English and it generates native iOS and Android apps along with a complete backend. That includes the database, APIs, authentication, and a visual backend manager to configure and manage everything. These are not web wrappers. They are real native builds.

What stood out to me was the speed. The jump from idea to a working prototype happened in minutes. For anyone who has built mobile products before, you know that even setting up auth, basic CRUD APIs, and project structure can easily take days or weeks. Seeing that compressed so dramatically raised some interesting questions.
