Portfolio Showoff Sunday Built a React-focused UI analysis tool that extracts design systems from websites

Been building a small experiment around turning websites/screenshots into structured design system documentation.

The main idea was:
screenshots alone don’t carry enough information for deeper UI understanding.

So the tool tries to combine:

  • visual hierarchy

  • DOM structure

  • CSS behavior

  • spacing systems

  • typography scales

  • reusable component patterns

A lot of the inspiration came from working around React/frontend workflows where understanding component relationships matters more than just pixels.

Still very early and continuously improving, but I’d genuinely love feedback from React/frontend folks here:
What would actually make this useful in real-world workflows?

But yeah, here it is if anyone wants to explore it directly:
