Pix2Code Uses Artificial Intelligence to Transform Mockups Into Code

— May 26, 2017 — Tech
Front-end developers are tasked with coding in the website designs created in programs like Photoshop and Illustrator by professional designers, but those designers might soon be able to cut out the middleman thanks to Pix2Code. Developed by Dutch tech company UIzard Technologies, Pix2Code uses artificial intelligence to create front-end code based on screenshots of graphical user interfaces developed by web designers.

On most websites (or software of any kind, for that matter,) tasks are divided between front-end and back-end development. The back-end developers work on the guts of the software in question, making sure that it functions as intended. Front-end developers work to make sure the interface looks and responds according to the raw designs given to them by graphic artists and UI professionals. Thanks to Pix2Code, the front-end job can now be handled by AI.
Trend Themes
1. AI-assisted Front-end Coding - AI is transforming traditional front-end coding by allowing designers to skip the middleman and let artificial intelligence code their designs into functional user interfaces.
2. Automated Web Design - With tools like Pix2Code, designers can create graphical user interfaces and have them automatically converted into usable code without the need for a human developer.
3. Efficiency in UI Development - Pix2Code and other AI-driven software prove invaluable to developers by speeding up the UI development process and reducing the possibility of errors and bugs in the code.
Industry Implications
1. Software Development - Pix2Code disrupts traditional front-end development by decreasing the need for manual coding, and thus reducing the workload and cutting cost for software development companies.
2. Web Design - The use of AI in creating functional user interfaces is creating new opportunities for web designers to streamline their workflows and produce higher quality work in less time.
3. Artificial Intelligence - AI-driven applications like Pix2Code represent the growing demand and increasing adoption of artificial intelligence in various industries.
