Show HN: I'm building an AI tool that turns Design Systems into React components

2 years ago

Hi HN! Solo developer here. 10 days ago, I started building this after spending countless hours copying/pasting marketing sections and fighting to keep them consistent with our design system.

I wondered: "What if AI could understand our design system and generate React components that actually match it?"

Current progress (10 days in): - Can generate hero sections that follow your design tokens - Uses your actual component variants and styles - Works with Next.js, Tailwind, shadcn/ui

It's very early days, but I'm excited to share it with other devs who: - Are tired of rebuilding similar marketing sections - Want their components to actually match their design system - Need to ship marketing pages faster

Would love to hear from you if: 1. This resonates with your daily struggles 2. You'd like to try it out and share feedback 3. You have ideas that could make this genuinely useful

I'm building this solo and really want to understand if I'm solving a real problem before going deeper. Comment about your design system pains!

Goal: Save developers hours of repetitive work while maintaining design consistency
