This option seems like such a no-brainer but I think I understand why it's been left out, that sort of functionality in a free application could reduce revenue created by people purchasing Dreamweaver or another HTML/CSS capable application. I also see that a lot of the actual "app" functionality is not there because it's essentially a mock-up program. For instance XD has the ability to SHOW you a number of posts on your newly created social media app but doesn't include any of the back-end workings to allow new users and post creation and things like that, as well as a myriad of other functions I have no idea about - I'm sure. I see it as does the mock-up get you close enough that if you COULD export as HTML/CSS that you could easily implement the back-end functionality that would be required? Or would you have to do so much more work it would be easier to just recreate the app from the ground up. Those things I don't know. What I do know is that I love the ease of creating websites with XD ... website mock-ups anyways ... and I imagine exporting to HTML would be a fairly easy final step to implement. As opposed to a fully functioning phone app. For now I see XD as the perfect tool for creating websites twice. And that is sad because it's really a great tool.
