We're excited to share the latest updates to Image2CodeAI. This January release brings powerful new features that make converting designs to code even faster and more accurate.

New Features

React + Tailwind CSS Output

The most requested feature is here! You can now generate React functional components with Tailwind CSS styling directly from your images.

What you get:

  • Modern functional component syntax
  • Tailwind utility classes throughout
  • Ready-to-use in Next.js, Vite, or CRA
  • Clean, readable JSX structure

This output format is perfect for developers working with React and the utility-first CSS approach.

Enhanced AI Accuracy

We've upgraded our AI model to better understand complex layouts:

  • Better Grid Detection: More accurate row and column recognition
  • Improved Color Extraction: Exact colors mapped to Tailwind palette
  • Enhanced Typography: Better font size and weight matching
  • Smarter Spacing: More consistent padding and margin values

Overall accuracy improvements of 15-20% on complex UI designs.

Improved Prompt Refinement

The natural language refinement system now understands more commands:

New supported prompts:

  • "Add dark mode support"
  • "Make it mobile responsive"
  • "Extract as a reusable component"
  • "Add hover states to all buttons"
  • "Use my primary color"
  • "Add animation to the cards"

The AI now better understands context and makes more targeted changes.

Code History Improvements

We've enhanced the code history feature:

  • Better Organization: Generations grouped by project
  • Quick Preview: Hover to see output preview
  • Copy Any Version: Easy access to all iterations
  • Compare Versions: Side-by-side version comparison
