Wish that was the case in general, but it isn't. The implementation details matter, because:

- There may be other tools better at specific aspects of the product, which you may want to include in the process;

- Special case of the above, the design tool may not carry you 100% of the way, and you don't want the tool to become an anchor at that point;

- There may be other people working on the product, using different tools;

- There is lots of ready-made stuff that can be plugged in to your product to enhance or prettify or optimize it - provided it's compatible with common standards at the implementation level.

This is true. There are standard use cases like landing/marketing sites, blogs etc that can be done fully visually, and there are custom once where coding is not avoidable.

We have designed it to work for both by providing API and CLI to integrate with the custom app and git-based workflow.

This part is still work in progress though.
