I think I need to drive this home more: programming didn't used to be like this—even for complex, networked apps with a large amount of features and complex user interfaces. And apps didn't have thousands of dependencies like many even simple ones do now.

IMO the reason why people yearn for tools that generate code is that programming is broken—everything now is giant layer cakes of huge, complex and intransparent frameworks designed by and for large teams in giant tech companies.
