A method of developing a software prototype for and by a non-programmer user enters user-inputs into a UI in natural language including documentation requirements and user's business logic. The UI has access to a database, and optionally to text files, spreadsheets, data in xml format and user's business logic information. A parser tool is used for automatically parsing user-inputs into easily processed software components and for automatically converting said inputs into an XML (Extensible Mark up Language) document. The XML document is converted into a XSLT document to form data base tables, and, the user selectively initiates validation, data retrieval and information storage. The user-input may be partially a voice input, assisted by a voice-to-text converter. The inputs may use the help of an AI robot. A user without any programming knowledge can create a software application which may be in real time, without any intermediary professional software help.
