FAQPage Schema

How do I brainstorm multiple AI design variants for a UI?▼

To brainstorm AI design variants, generate multiple coherent UI design directions in one go and compare layouts, typography, and color side-by-side in a browser for rapid visual alignment.

What is the best way to compare AI-generated UI layouts during a design sprint?▼

Comparing AI-generated UI layouts is best handled by generating multiple design directions simultaneously and viewing the variants side-by-side to evaluate components and typography.

How do I iteratively refine AI-generated design directions?▼

To iteratively refine AI-generated design directions, capture feedback on the generated variants and apply structured steps to guide the design toward your preferred visual direction.

Where are AI design prototypes saved when generating visual board variants?▼

AI design prototypes and visual board variants are saved as artifacts to a centralized design directory located at ~/.gstack/projects/$SLUG/designs.

Does this AI design tool require external dependencies to generate UI directions?▼

No external dependencies are required to generate AI UI design directions, as the tool operates standalone for design exploration or integrates into an existing design sprint workflow.

Can I use this for standalone design exploration without a full design sprint?▼

Yes, you can use this for standalone design exploration to rapidly produce and compare multiple AI-driven UI directions independently of a structured design sprint.
