Turn Any Webpage Into a Mockup: New Browser‑Based UI Cloning Tool

A new browser‑extension design tool is catching the eye of front‑end developers and UI designers. Instead of taking screenshots and redrawing everything by hand, you can point it at any live webpage and have it reconstruct the layout as an editable mockup for tools like Figma or Sketch.

The extension parses the page’s HTML and CSS, then extracts interface pieces—buttons, cards, navigation bars—as reusable components. It preserves structure, spacing, typography and color tokens, so you can quickly relabel elements, plug them into your own design system, or keep only the layout while swapping in your brand styles.

This makes competitive teardown work and UI “copy‑study” dramatically faster. Writers abroad have described it as a kind of reverse‑engineering microscope for web design, letting teams analyse and iterate on patterns in hours rather than days.

Because live sites are often protected by copyright and brand guidelines, the maker stresses that it’s intended as a wireframing and learning aid, not a shortcut to cloning production interfaces. Even so, the tool is already popular among students and solo builders who want to learn modern layout techniques by dissecting real products in the browser.
