Abstract: A computer network implemented system is provided that provides a development platform for streamlining the creation of graphical user interface having natural user interface (NUI) attributes (the "platform"). The platform is based on a novel and innovative development framework and workflow that enables the creation of executable GUI elements. A display utility provides a series of screens that provide access to functions that capture a designer's user interface design intent. A user interface is provided that allows a designer to capture the various elements and information indicative of their intent relative to the Ul design, to enable creation of a series of Ul assets that are encoded with sufficient information to enable their rendering with significantly reduced development effort than in prior art solutions. In one aspect, the assets referred to herein incorporate coding elements corresponding to relevant effects such as position, animation, and "look". The elements together represent the design intent that is important to convey the important elements for accurately rendering a NUI. More specifically, the platform is designed to encode the assets with state to state transitions such that the assets themselves can be manipulated (to change order and make modifications for example), and yet these assets are also executable.
