SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The Mockup Sandbox provides an isolated, browser-based sandbox to design, preview, and iterate on web UI components directly on the workspace canvas, ensuring live rendering without affecting the main app.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Isolated Vite dev server with iframe-based previews for each component.
  • Side-by-side design variants, responsive views, and state previews (loading, empty, error).
  • Companion workflows for extracting existing components and graduating mockups into the main app.

Quick Start

Set up the mockup sandbox, start the dev server, and begin embedding iframes for your components.

FAQPage Schema
How do I prototype live UI components on a canvas without affecting the main app?

Live UI prototyping on a canvas isolates components in a dedicated browser-based sandbox using iframe previews, ensuring your design iterations render safely without impacting the main application. This sandbox approach allows side-by-side variant comparisons and state previews.

Can I preview responsive web UI design variants side-by-side during iteration?

Yes, you can preview responsive web UI design variants side-by-side during iteration. The sandbox renders isolated components in iframes, allowing you to compare different design variants, responsive views, and states like loading or error directly on the canvas.

Do I need a Vite dev server to run isolated iframe UI mockups?

Yes, a Vite-based sandbox is required to run isolated iframe UI mockups. The Vite dev server provides the isolated browser environment needed to render and preview live web UI components directly on the workspace canvas.

What is the best way to extract existing components into a UI prototyping sandbox?

The best way to extract existing components is using the companion extract workflow, which pulls existing UI elements into the isolated sandbox. This allows you to safely iterate on and preview extracted web UI content before graduating changes back to the main app.

How does graduating a mockup from the sandbox into the main app work?

Graduating a mockup integrates your iterated UI design from the isolated sandbox into the main application. The companion graduate workflow takes your finalized preview components and transitions them out of the sandbox environment to become part of the main app.
