Real Tailwind Classes, Not Approximate CSS

Every style mapped to idiomatic Tailwind utility classes.

Utility classes

All styling mapped to Tailwind utilities — no inline styles, no custom CSS.

Responsive prefixes

Breakpoints captured as sm:, md:, lg:, and xl: prefixes.

Color mapping

Site colors matched to Tailwind palette or extracted as custom values.

Spacing scale

Pixel values mapped to Tailwind's spacing scale (p-4, gap-6, etc.).

Custom config

tailwind.config.ts with custom colors, fonts, and spacing from the original site.

Ready to run

npm install && npm run dev — works immediately with Tailwind.

Why Tailwind Extraction Beats Manual Conversion

Manually converting a website’s CSS to Tailwind means inspecting every element, mapping pixel values to Tailwind’s spacing scale, translating colors to the palette, and replacing media queries with responsive prefixes. For a single page, that’s 2–8 hours of tedious work.

UI reverse engineering automates this entirely. Tools like ui.rip analyze the rendered DOM — the actual computed styles after CSS cascade resolution — and map every property to the corresponding Tailwind utility class. The output is clean, idiomatic Tailwind, not a style={{ }}  dump.

Frequently asked questions

Does it extract Tailwind even if the original site doesn’t use Tailwind? +
Yes. ui.rip analyzes the computed CSS styles from any site — regardless of how it was built — and maps them to Tailwind utility classes. Bootstrap, custom CSS, CSS-in-JS, Sass — all get converted to Tailwind.
How accurate is the Tailwind mapping? +
ui.rip maps computed styles to the closest Tailwind utility. Standard spacing, colors, and typography map precisely. For custom values outside Tailwind’s default scale, it uses arbitrary value syntax like <code>w-[37px]</code>.
Does it handle responsive breakpoints? +
Yes. ui.rip captures the page at multiple viewport widths and maps responsive behavior to Tailwind’s <code>sm:</code>, <code>md:</code>, <code>lg:</code>, and <code>xl:</code> prefixes.
Can I use this to migrate an existing project to Tailwind? +
Absolutely. Capture your existing site with ui.rip, and you get a Tailwind-based version of every page. Use the output as a reference or starting point for your migration.
Does the output include a tailwind.config.ts? +
Yes. The generated project includes a Tailwind config with any custom colors, fonts, or spacing values detected on the original site.
What about dark mode styles? +
ui.rip captures the site in its default state. If the site has a visible dark mode toggle, you can capture both states separately. Automatic dark mode detection is on the roadmap.
