tldraw is an infinite canvas tool that turns sketches into working code using AI. Draw a wireframe, and it generates React components. Also works as a whiteboard and diagramming tool. Open source.
Reviewer scorecard
“API integration is clean. The prompt rewriting feature improves results but can be bypassed for precise control.”
“The open-source canvas library is excellent for building custom drawing tools. The AI sketch-to-code is a nice bonus but the core library is the real value.”
“Good but not as good as Midjourney for artistic work. The style is recognizably 'DALL-E' which limits creative range.”
“Drawing a rough wireframe and getting working React code is magical. It is not pixel-perfect but it gets the structure right. Perfect for rapid prototyping sessions with clients.”
“Reliable, well-documented API, integrated into ChatGPT. The safe choice for product image generation.”
“Sketch-to-code is the natural interface for design. No more translating mental models through Figma to code. Draw it, ship it. This is where UI development is heading.”
