We make a ton of MVP apps, and what you're talking about would be amazing! But the reality is we'd never get close to it. Every app focusses on a different audience. We aim to help them reach their unique goal as quickly as possible, which inevitably means a different UI approach for each scenario. It's not worth the effort in trying to automate.
Instead, we focussed on a generating a front-end for admins. It works with APIs so any business logic and security validation is just baked in cannot be by-passed.

About SWARM
At SWARM, we like to have fun as we push the boundaries on what can be done when you combine great design with solid development and marketing that gets noticed. On the surface, we make apps for iPhone, Android, Smart TV, wearables and emerging technology. Behind the scenes though - we draw, doodle, and solve puzzles. Usually, those puzzles are in code, product, or design. We’'re just a bunch of individuals who are passionate about technology.
Truth be told, we’re not just a services company. We experiment and hack a lot. Sometimes those experiments fail (like an anonymous twitter chat app) and sometimes they get pretty good traction, get noticed and win!
Also, we're pretty big on education and learning forever. We’re always tinkering and evolving our processes, working out how to build better apps, challenging why certain designs work and why others don't, and we'll happily share with you as you grow in your skillset.
Our 10 person team is in a co-working space with plenty of comfy collaborative areas, and is beautifully situated in the Flatiron district.
We're actually a bunch of kids who never wanted to give up playing, so we decided to work in such a way that we could get away with playing all day.

Usually, those puzzles are in code, product, or design. I guess we're also a bunch of individuals who are passionate about technology.
Truth be told, we’re not just a services company. We experiment and hack a lot. Sometimes those experiments fail (like an anonymous twitter chat app) and sometimes they get excellent traction and recognition.
We're also pretty big on education, we don't expect any new team member to know everything. We'll train you in our process, how to build apps for mobile and web, why certain design structures work and why others don't, and we'll mentor you as you grow in your skill-set.
