As of today, much of the frontend development process already has been automated. Platforms like Anima convert Figma, Adobe XD, and Sketch designs into developer-friendly code for the entire UI, including styling, responsive layout (DOM), interactions, and rich media. Semantic naming capabilities are a work in progress, but are inevitable as AI gets better at identifying components.
Considering the current Machine Learning trends alongside innovations in existing frontend automation platforms, we'll likely see full, human-level frontend code automation within the next few years.
