screenshot-to-code

This is a simple app that converts a screenshot to HTML/Tailwind CSS. It uses GPT-4 Vision to generate the code, and DALL-E 3 to generate similar looking images.

See Examples section below for more demos.

🆕 Try it here (bring your own OpenAI key - your key must have access to GPT-4 Vision. See FAQ section below for details). Or see Getting Started below for local install instructions.

Updates

• Nov 16 - Added a setting to disable DALL-E image generation if you don't need that
• Nov 16 - View code directly within the app
• Nov 15 - 🔥 You can now instruct the AI to update the code as you wish. Useful if the AI messed up some styles or missed a section.

Getting Started

The app has a React/Vite frontend and a FastAPI backend. You will need an OpenAI API key with access to the GPT-4 Vision API.

Run the backend (I use Poetry for package management - pip install poetry if you don't have it):

cd backend
echo "OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-your-key" > .env
poetry install
poetry shell
poetry run uvicorn main:app --reload --port 7000

Run the frontend:

cd frontend
yarn
yarn dev

Open http://localhost:5173 to use the app.

If you prefer to run the backend on a different port, update VITE_WS_BACKEND_URL in frontend/.env.local

FAQs

• I'm running into an error when setting up the backend. How can I fix it? Try this. If that still doesn't work, open an issue.
• How do I get an OpenAI API key that has the GPT4 Vision model available? Create an OpenAI account. And then, you need to buy at least $1 worth of credit on the Billing dashboard.
• How can I provide feedback? For feedback, feature requests and bug reports, open an issue or ping me on Twitter.
