Software Creationalism

Software creationalism is a flavor of software development that is inordinately, irresponsibly, and often destructively concerned with the initial creation of an application's code. Tool vendors - especially in the Microsoft space - target software developers with a barrage of presentations on the wonders of wizards, drag and drop data-binding, smart tags, application generators, etc. These kinds of things are aimed at going from having no code, to having as much code as possible, and to do so with very little micro-iterative practice in play.
