    TOP NEWS

    Happy Friday Eve! In today’s digest, I’m covering a chrome extension that makes it easier for designers and developers to quickly spin up beautiful React components. But first…

    The headlines: 

    🍎 Apple’s new iOS beta lets you remove objects from pictures with AI. 

    😓 Reddit is back online after a software update shut it down temporarily.

    💸 OpenAI is in talks to raise funds at a $100B valuation.

    PRODUCT HIGHLIGHT
    Turn every design into a working React component with this extension

    Ever spent hours manually copying design elements from websites, wishing there was a faster way? It’s a common struggle for designers and developers who just want to get the job done without all the tedious effort. The process of sifting through HTML, replicating styles, and tweaking them to fit your needs can turn a simple task into a drawn-out process that stifles creativity.

    That’s where HTML to React comes in. This browser extension is designed to make your workflow more efficient by allowing you to take HTML elements from any website and instantly convert them into React components. It’s not just about copying—it’s about capturing inspiration and seamlessly integrating it into your project. You can even export these components to Figma, making it easier to bridge the gap between design and development.

    Using it is straightforward: enable the extension, select the part of the page you want, and you’ll get React code ready to use in your project. If you need to customize the component, the Magic Patterns editor offers simple tools for refining the elements to suit your exact needs.

    Browser extensions that make designer and developer’s lives easier are becoming a popular niche category on Product Hunt. Just yesterday, I covered Button Stealer, an extension that lets you steal buttons from around the web and store them in a dedicated profile for inspiration. 

    So, if you’re looking for a tool that turns web browsing into a treasure hunt for design ideas—or just want to simplify your process—HTML to React might be what you need. After all, who says inspiration has to be hard to capture?
