In this post I outline the pipeline I built for automating UI design. It's an ongoing project but it's already replacing for me a lot of the drudgery of design exploration, which current tools noticeably don't do well.

Yup, I just added the demo video!
tscepo··on Show HN: Orthogonal – An AI Workspace for your files
Orthogonal is simple RAG with file and conversation coverage. I notice that a single context is too messy to keep track of what I'm working on, so I added projects so you can switch context for your files and chats. Inspired by Claude Projects.
tscepo··on Show HN: Save your cells for future aging therapies
This is a good point. In general, you get redundancy by splitting samples over multiple locations and storing cells at -196 liquid nitrogen or slightly warmer vapor phase.

I also think sequencing is another form of insurance that applies to cell storage for aging, because sequencing as much of your cells as possible now is basically a digital save state of your youngest cells. A rubric for age-reversal, at least for your cells.

Ah yeah you can reach me here: https://x.com/tscepo

And yeah will add the about etc. today!

tscepo··on Show HN: Turn Drawings into React Code
I made this as a quick, focused way to generate responsive code for my projects. It focuses on generating responsive element layout, which tends to be the most annoying part of creating UI. With GPT4 being released I'll be able to generate more sophisticated code soon. Posting here to see if it's useful for anyone else.

Thanks! And no, it only samples the current state. For sure makes sense as a next feature.

The react export option exports inline jsx for now. You should be able to directly paste that into a react file, as opposed to the html export. I purposely don't wrap the jsx in a named component since I can see all kinds of use cases where a person wants to inject jsx into a part of an existing component.

At the time of posting, the extension actually allows you to export either jsx (which you can directly place in a react file) or html. That detail just isn't shown in the video, which shows an earlier version of the feature. Will update video.

Should work as long as the final output is html, instead of say something rendered within a canvas element.

Thanks! It'll work so long as what's rendered is html, instead of say a canvas element.
tscepo··on Show HN: Copy React code from any site
Any page that renders html should work!

Thanks! Since Aspect aims to solve the design-to-engineering handoff problem, I think we monetize on a per-seat basis for enterprise customers. Similar to Figma's pricing model actually.
tscepo··on Show HN: Export React Code from Figma
I made this because it felt like a missing feature in Figma. Engineers shouldn't spend time rounding corners and changing button colors when designers have already done it. Hope it's useful!

Yeah I can learn a lot from React Studio—I think a lot about keeping the learning curve down for growth, so I'm glad you pointed that out. I'm focusing on enterprise sales next and actively looking for people to help with that, so again I think you're right. Thanks for the feedback!

We're actually in review on the Figma plugin store for exactly this. Should be out soon.
tscepo··on Show HN: A Visual IDE for React
That means a lot, thanks!
tscepo··on Show HN: A Visual IDE for React
Will make these changes in a few minutes, thanks for the heads up!
tscepo··on Show HN: A Visual IDE for React
Been thinking about this a lot the past few days. The main reason this isn’t yet integrated into vscode is to allow designers to edit, like in webflow.
tscepo··on Show HN: A Visual IDE for React
Thanks!

Right now we export class components, but the option to export functional components is coming soon. Will likely default to functional component export.

Thanks!

tscepo··on Show HN: A Visual IDE for React
Yes. I’m super passionate about software that creates software.

I set up super minimal preset styling, and yeah I think basic css import makes sense as a next feature. Hoping to avoid overly complex style inheritance.

I 100% agree, getting layout css right is the most annoying part of styling. I’m inspired by Apple’s stack views and Figma’s auto layout which make it a lot more intuitive so I think those can be the first “Aspect components” that will come out on next release.

Thanks for the feedback!

tscepo··on Show HN: A Visual IDE for React
I really appreciate the feedback, thanks! Talking to designer friends and updating UX as we speak, based on this.
tscepo··on Show HN: A Visual IDE for React
Got it, added some explanatory copy. Accompanying image examples following soon.
tscepo··on Show HN: A Visual IDE for React
Ah thanks for the heads up, just fixed!

Ah I used React classes out of habit—will update the exporter to output hooks instead. Thanks for the heads up!
tscepo··on Show HN: Aspect – Webflow for React Components
I believe it can become npm for UI, so significant parts of this will be open source to allow compositions of existing and future UI libraries.
