The Challenge of Design to Code Automation for Agents
Press Space for next Tweet
<rant> MY KINGDOM for one agent that can actually do e2e design -> pixel-perfect frontend code (including auth so it can login to the app). I'm currently using @paper + Claude Code + Codex CLI + Codex Mac App + agent-browser + Claude Code Chrome extension + ... It's ridiculous. I really, really, really want one ADE to own all this. Come on people. You literally have billions of dollars collectively in funding to sort this out. I'm working on a @nextjs app - this is literally burned into the weights of the models - not doing something new or novel here. Maybe it's a skill issue on my side. Honestly I doubt it though - I spend 10 hours/day in these tools and I've been coding with agents for 3 years. Part of the problem is that I want the UX to be pixel-perfect, beautiful, and elegant. I'm very opinionated about the design being perfect. Maybe the problem is that I've been a backend developer my whole career, so if I was a front-end developer, maybe all this would be easier. The point is that we need the agents to allow anyone to write perfectly *designed* front end code. Also, to be clear: I have a design system skill. I have clear and concise documentation. I don't have any documentation drift. I don't have bloated agents md files. I'm doing everything correctly, and this is still WAY too freaking hard. </rant>
