How ui.rip Works — From URL to React in 3 Steps

Paste a URL. Get a production-ready Next.js project. Here's what happens under the hood.

1 Capture

Deep Crawl & Capture

Paste any URL and ui.rip launches a real browser engine to crawl the live site. Unlike simple HTTP scrapers, it fully renders JavaScript — capturing the post-hydration DOM that users actually see.

  • ✓Captures SPA state trees — every route, modal, and dropdown
  • ✓Records all interactions — hover states, animations, transitions
  • ✓Multi-page crawling with automatic link discovery
  • ✓Assets, fonts, and images captured alongside DOM structure

2 Inspect

Framework-Aware Inspection

ui.rip doesn't just dump raw HTML. It understands the original framework — detecting React, Vue, Angular, Svelte, and 10+ other frameworks — then extracts the architectural patterns that matter.

  • ✓Detects source framework and CSS methodology
  • ✓Extracts design tokens — colors, spacing, typography
  • ✓Identifies component boundaries and hierarchy
  • ✓Analyzes style systems for optimal Tailwind mapping
3 Generate

AI-Driven Reconstruction

AI decomposes the captured UI into clean, idiomatic React components. The output is a complete Next.js project — not an HTML dump, but real code you can ship, extend, and maintain.

  • ✓Clean component decomposition with proper naming
  • ✓TypeScript interfaces for all props and state
  • ✓Tailwind CSS styling mapped from design tokens
  • ✓Next.js App Router structure with layouts and pages
