"Design-to-code translation (quick prototypes) Once you craft a high-fidelity mockup, you need to turn it into code. Previously, you have either to wait for developers to do it or learn how to code and do it yourself. Nowadays you can simply send your design to Claude and it will code it. I typically use Claude to generate an HTML + TailwindCSS prototype from UI specifications or UI screenshots. Here is how it works. You attach a screenshot of the UI you want to craft and let Claude do the heavy lifting for you."
"Quick note: I'm not saying that this appoarch will replace front-end dev work. I suggest using it only for creating prototypes for demo purposes. For my example, I will use a screenshot of the mobile screen I've generated using ChatGPT 5 ( https://uxplanet.org/ui-design-with-chatgpt-5-afc67dc501a1) All I need to do is attach this screenshot in high resolution to Claude and ask it to generate an HTML prototype. The moment you submit this prompt, Claude starts working on this task and writes code in real time."
Anthropic Claude excels at code-adjacent design tasks and helps UI designers generate quick HTML + TailwindCSS prototypes from high-resolution screenshots or UI specifications. Designers can attach visual assets and receive generated code in real time, which can be downloaded and opened in a browser when in-app previews are inaccurate. Generated prototypes include minimal interactivity by default unless interactive behaviors are explicitly requested. Use of Claude streamlines demo creation, early validation, and designer–developer communication while remaining a supportive tool rather than a replacement for front-end development work.
