Is there a possibilty to share a GUI (or app) created programmatically as a Web App?

Hello,

I have a GUI (or app) that was created programatically. It would be very helpful if I could use the existing code (or most of it) when recasting it as a Web-App.

1. I have tried saving the GUI as a .fig file, loading it within GUIDE, resaving it and then using the App Design migration tool. However this leads to errors pertaining to 'UnsupportedAPICalls'. Although the resaved GUI does function perfectly.
2. The alternative would be to re-create the GUI (or app) within App Designer from scratch.

Any suggestions regarding this would be most helpful. Thank you so much!

What release of MATLAB are you using? The recomendation is R2020 or later; some things before apparently don't work.

It's supposed to give you list of things; is there no indication of what APIs are those identified?

I never built a GUIDE app so never tried using the tool, but I'd think if it actually runs should be able to run the compiler on the .mlapp and build the web version. But, I forget if that's builtin or have to have the extra MATLAB Compiler; will have to go look again; I remember it being very confusing when I first looked into building a standalone executable to figure out just what it was that was required.
