I am the maker of SnipCSS. https://www.snipcss.com https://www.snipcss.com Just like with other tools such as yt-dlp, the user is required to use it responsibly. As long as you don't copy text/images/svg, the only issue is going to be "trade dress" infringement since CSS styles are not copyrightable. (not a lawyer so this isn't legal advice) Strange that this post made it to HN because I'm also releasing a Tailwind conversion this week. https://x.com/SnipCSS/status/1853586090164420639 https://x.com/SnipCSS/status/1853586090164420639 I believe mine will be much better based on the blog post about this tool.

> . As long as you don't copy text/images/svg, the only issue is going to be "trade dress" infringement since CSS styles are not copyrightable. (not a lawyer so this isn't legal advice) I am not lawyer as well, but this is highly unlikely true. It is like saying that C syntax is not copyrightable so I can took their code. What matters is the end result; what did you do with it? And particularly, is monetary gain involved? If you use tools like this to replicate innovative design, and you don't have permission to use it, it is much more complicated. Especially, if you use that in commercial setting.
