SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Visually important website builds often drift into generic, cluttered, or low-fidelity frontend code because the design intent is never captured as a concrete reference. This Skill enforces an image-first workflow so the generated design images act as the source of truth before any code is written. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Image-First Workflow: Generates one large, readable reference image per website section, deeply analyzes typography, spacing, color, and components, then implements the frontend to match. - Anti-Drift and Anti-Slop Rules: Prevents nested-card layouts, micro-UI clutter, unreadable compressed boards, and generic coded reinterpretations through explicit design constraints. - Extraction-Oriented Regeneration: Creates fresh standalone detail images instead of cropping when text, buttons, or spacing are too small to analyze. - Use Case: Ask for a premium 8-section SaaS landing page; the Skill generates 8 section images, extracts the design system from each, and produces a faithful, breathable, responsive implementation. ## Quick Start Use the image-to-code skill to design and build a premium landing page with a hero, features, testimonials, and pricing section.

FAQPage Schema
How do I convert a website design image into frontend code?

Generate a clear reference image for each website section first, then analyze typography, spacing, colors, buttons, and layout before writing code. The image acts as the design source of truth and the code is a faithful translation of it.

How many images should I generate for a multi-section landing page?

Generate one large image per section rather than one compressed board for the whole page. An 8-section page should produce 8 section images, plus optional detail images when text or components are too small to analyze.

Can I crop sections out of a full-page design image for detail views?

No. Cropping destroys spacing accuracy, type scale, and layout proportions. Instead, generate a fresh standalone image for that section using the same palette, typography mood, and component family.

When is image generation not required before coding a website?

Direct coding is acceptable when the task is mostly technical, such as a bug fix, when the user provides a precise design system, or when the work is structural rather than visual. Visual tasks should always start with image generation.

Why does coded output often look generic compared to the design image?

Design drift happens when implementation simplifies distinctive sections into default templates or compresses generous spacing. The anti-drift rules require preserving layout logic, typography mood, and visual identity from the source images.
