I just set up penpot on a fly.io and connect to it with mcp -and- a browser-use-tool.. because of network weirdness and serverles platforms.. and then i can get the best of both worlds, of a structured ui design tool, and a flexible adaptive chat interface. couple that with .. image generation tools, and code execution for converting generated pngs to svgs, and I think I came up with something pretty neat.

$30/month for a button on web page?

You get quite a bit more than that, including access to the MCP server. We are boostraped, no VC to back us so it's the only way we can make this project sustainable.

Some of these are genuinely nice. I really like the action slide-out, the wall reveal, and the slide-off reveal.

Unfortunately for a thing whose core job is polished UI, there's still quite a lot of polish needed before I would be willing to implement any of this in my UI To name a few : - the swap icon state theme preview switcher cascades the element brightness rather than fading them together. - The confirm reveal has something wrong with the spring every third or fourth click, which is strange - Cards: the stacked deck cycle. When you click Next, it doesn't draw the top card. - The shared element expand option: when you minimize, the spring dampening pushes the components outside of the container. - Swipe to dismiss causes the container to temporarily show a scroll bar.

Thanks a lot for the feedback. Will implement.

"It's one of the resources I used recently. -shadcn" being the top testimony is so funny.

I do love some of these examples, but, and as others noticed, they do lack polish.

Haha, yea. I was so happy when he mentioned TypeUI in a tweeet. Agreed, will work on polishing.

Love these but curious: they sell access to this UI but can't I point an agent at this and have it copy these? Or is it better quality outputs to use the MCP?

Thanks! Me and the co-founder of the project built Flowbite previously so we have some experience in the UI/UX field. I think that as with anything you can copy it, but your agent will be pointed to an HTML+CSS structure, rather than the natural language structure of our prompts/MCP context. Plus, you can support the work of two fellow humans.
