Hello Saiprasad,

I'm glad to hear about your interest in Airflow. The focus of Airflow
development is on better support for configuration as code based workflow
development. For a lot of Airflow users, NOT using a drag+drop UI to
configure pipelines is one of the major selling points.

One could certainly build a drag+drop DAG configuration tool that sits on
top of Airflow's DAG system but I have not heard about anyone doing so.

If you need a drap+drop workflow editor right now, there are a number of
other ETL frameworks that might be better suited to your needs. I have
heard good things about Pentaho (Kettle), Talend, and Alteryx but I am sure
there are quite a few others as well.
