Well, yes there are similar tools to what you are trying to find.
If you are open to using TKinter for quick utility programs, PAGE is 
probably the closest thing to what you are describing, it is a
standalone drag and drop visual tool, it generates python code
containing Tkinter widgets setup and callback stubs.

Other one is Qt Designer + UIC (pyside 6 / pyqt) 
Qt is the most polished GUI framework out there, and its visual design
tool can be used completely independently of any IDE.
