The best way to build UI, fast

Hey PH! I’m Irvin, CEO of Subframe (https://subframe.com/)

Back in 2022, I started Subframe as a passion project because I was frustrated by the inefficiencies in building UI: 🤯 My team wasted hours drawing rectangles in Figma, translating mockups to CSS, and sitting in meetings correcting the mistakes. 🤯 I tried Figma plugins that promised design-to-code, but rarely produced high-quality code. 🤯 As a non-designer, I couldn’t get things to look good when I tried designing it myself.

That’s why we built Subframe, a new way to quickly go from idea to production-ready UI.

Here’s how it works: ✨ Browse hundreds of beautiful, designer-approved templates to kickstart your designs 🎨 Refine your designs by drag-and-dropping in Subframe’s visual editor using real components, not mockups 💻 Export your designs to high-quality React/Tailwind code by copy and pasting

Subframe is unlike existing tools out there in that: ➡️ We help you build your actual product, not just marketing pages. You can create screens like dashboards, settings pages, chat bots, and more. ➡️ Our editor is easy and intuitive for non-designers. We are an alternative to Figma that gives you guardrails like choosing colors, which takes the guesswork of “making things look good”. ➡️ We work within your codebase. After you build something on Subframe, the UI code you copy/paste is all yours. You can hook it up to your custom business logic, without any lock-in.

We’ve seen hundreds of companies build UI on Subframe already and are excited to now open up to the public.

And that’s not all – we have an exciting roadmap ahead. I wrote about it here: https://medium.com/@irvin_zhan/i...

Thank you for your support PH 🙏
