SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill allows users to seamlessly bring existing UI components from their codebase onto the design canvas for redesign, variant creation, or visual reference, ensuring design iterations are based on actual code.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Component Extraction: Pulls specified UI components from the main application into a sandbox environment.
  • Dependency Management: Analyzes and rewrites import paths, stubs external dependencies, and copies necessary assets.
  • Use Case: A user wants to redesign their application's navigation bar. This skill extracts the existing navbar code, making it available in the mockup sandbox for isolated editing and iteration without affecting the live application.

Quick Start

Use the mockup-extract skill to put the user's current navbar component onto the canvas.

FAQPage Schema
How do I extract UI components from a codebase for design iteration?▼

To extract UI components for design iteration, this Skill pulls specified components from your codebase into a mockup sandbox, managing dependency trees and rewriting import paths to ensure isolated functionality for visual editing and variant creation.

How does UI extraction handle external dependencies and services?▼

UI extraction handles external dependencies by analyzing the component dependency tree, rewriting import paths, copying necessary assets, and stubbing external services to ensure the extracted component functions correctly in an isolated sandbox environment.

Can I redesign existing frontend components without affecting the live application?▼

Yes, you can redesign existing frontend components without affecting the live application by extracting them into a mockup sandbox, which isolates the component code for safe visual editing, variant creation, and design iteration.

What is a component sandbox used for in frontend development?▼

A component sandbox in frontend development is an isolated environment used for previewing and editing extracted UI components, allowing developers to safely perform design iterations and create variants based on actual codebase code.

Do I need to manually rewrite import paths when pulling components into a sandbox?▼

No, you do not need to manually rewrite import paths when pulling components into a sandbox, because the extraction process automatically analyzes dependency trees, rewrites import paths, and stubs external dependencies for isolated component functionality.
