SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Creates frontend-only, interactive prototypes after a design brief is confirmed, enabling rapid validation before building code.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Workflow routing: choose among Clone product, New product, Redesign product, Extend product to map to user requests.
  • Context-first prototyping: start with a get-context brief, then ideate if needed, and only proceed to code-generation steps when a visual target is provided.
  • Grounded in real-world tasks: supports routing from URLs, images, or ideas and ensures alignment with design briefs.

Quick Start

Confirm the design brief with the user, then select the appropriate prototype workflow and begin.

Frequently Asked Questions about prototype

FAQPage Schema
How do I convert an image to a frontend prototype?

Image-to-code prototyping converts visual mockups into interactive frontend targets. This workflow requires a confirmed design brief and uses a preflight context check to ensure alignment before generating the final frontend prototype.

What's the best way to clone a website frontend for rapid prototyping?

Cloning a website frontend uses url-to-code workflows to replicate existing designs. After confirming the design brief and running a context preflight, the system routes the request to build an interactive frontend prototype from the provided URL.

Can I create a frontend prototype from just an idea without a mockup?

Yes, you can prototype from ideas using the new product workflow. The system guides you through an ideation phase to define the visual target, proceeding to code generation only after the design brief and visual target are confirmed.

Does frontend prototyping require a design brief before building?

Yes, a confirmed design brief is required before building interactive prototypes. This preflight step ensures alignment with your goals, supporting workflows like clone, new product, redesign, and extend for accurate code generation.

When should I use the redesign workflow for frontend prototyping?

Use the redesign workflow when you need to modify or improve an existing frontend prototype. After confirming the design brief, it routes your request to update or overhaul the current visual target using image-to-code or url-to-code techniques.

Why start with a get-context preflight before generating prototype code?

A get-context preflight ensures your frontend prototype aligns with the confirmed design brief. It validates the visual target from mockups, URLs, or ideas before initiating the image-to-code or url-to-code generation steps.
