Efficient React Code Generation Tool for Developers
Website To React, available as a Chrome extension, streamlines the process of selecting components from any website to generate maintainable React code. The tool allows users to open the CodeParrot panel, select a desired component using a bounding box, and preview it before generating the corresponding React code. This functionality enables developers to quickly create components without the need for a design file, proving particularly useful for building initial product versions, internal tools, and proof of concepts.
While Website To React offers a solid starting point for code generation, it has certain limitations. The tool primarily uses HTML and CSS properties from the selected component and its parents, which may not include JavaScript interactions or inherited CSS rules. Additionally, resources like images and fonts must be added manually. Users should be aware that larger elements may yield lower accuracy in the generated code, as the AI models perform best with limited context.
