The biggest problem is not generating. Generating gets you 50%. The ability to then refactor on what is generate is key.
How are you going to tackle that problem? How much are you going to charge per conversion?
- jasim 11y ago- Fifty percent is already huge. We're starting there, but our larger goal is to make web development easier and faster. This is but a long journey, and we’re doing this one niche/tool at a time. - We already have a rudimentary bi-directional flow working: from design to code, and from live web applications back to design. We call this Teleport, and here is its demo: https://medium.com/sketch-app-sources/introducing-protoship-s-teleport-convert-websites-into-sketch-documents-5cb527b975dc https://medium.com/sketch-app-sources/introducing-protoship-... - Not yet decided on pricing.
- nojvek 11y agoSaw the video. Its website -> sketch. Seeing the sketch -> website would be great. Why aren't you guys charging for it right away? That's going to give a good indication whether designer/devs are willing to pay out of pocket. i.e Give 10 free conversions to new signups so users get a feel whether it solves their problem. There after its $5 per conversion or whatever amount you feel is worth. Ages ago I used to convert psds to html by hand. There was this Russian tool to convert psd to html for $3 per conversion. It was my best friend. It got me 50% there and then I had to do the rest by hand. Have you looked into conversion by OCR techniques? i.e someone pastes a screenshot, you recognize the margins, paddings, text, colours, font and spit out html/css
