SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Pulling an existing UI component from the main app into a mockup sandbox enables designers to preview, redesign, or create variants without re-implementing the component from scratch.

Core Features & Use Cases

Accurate visual reference: copies the real source code and dependencies into the mockup sandbox for faithful representation.
Isolated design iterations: enables comparing variants in a sandbox iframe without impacting the main app.
Implicit extraction: activates when users request redesign or variants of existing components, ensuring the real code is used as the starting point.

Quick Start

Pull an existing UI component into the mockup sandbox and open the preview to begin iteration.

FAQPage Schema

How do I pull existing UI components into a mockup sandbox for design iteration?▼

You can pull existing UI components into a mockup sandbox by copying real source code and dependencies, rewriting imports, and embedding the isolated component in a preview iframe for design iteration.

What is the purpose of using a mockup sandbox for UI components?▼

A mockup sandbox provides an isolated environment to preview, redesign, or create UI variants using real source code as a visual reference, without re-implementing the component from scratch or impacting the main app.

Can I create UI variants in an isolated preview iframe without impacting the main app?▼

Yes, you can create UI variants in an isolated preview iframe. The sandbox extracts the component to ensure design iterations occur separately from the main application without impacting production code.

Does the mockup extraction use real source code or re-coded components?▼

The mockup extraction uses real source code. It copies the actual component and its dependencies from the main app to serve as an accurate visual reference, completely avoiding the need to re-code from scratch.

When should I use a sandbox iframe to redesign existing UI components?▼

You should use a sandbox iframe to redesign existing UI components when you need an accurate visual reference for exploring design variants, ensuring changes are safely isolated from the main application during iteration.
