In this episode, we explore Google Stitch, an experimental AI tool powered by Gemini models that’s aiming to reshape how user interfaces are conceived and built. Stitch lets users generate UI layouts and front-end code from simple text or image prompts, acting as a rapid prototyping engine to bridge the gap between design ideas and functional code.
We discuss how the tool accelerates early-stage ideation and integrates with platforms like Figma, making it valuable for streamlining the design-to-code workflow. But while Stitch can output HTML and CSS, it isn’t production-ready out of the box. It often struggles with multi-screen consistency, lacks awareness of platform-specific standards like Material Design or Apple’s HIG, and requires developers to refine its output before deployment.
We also touch on the critical role of prompt engineering to get usable results, positioning Stitch as an AI collaborator—not a full-stack designer. Tune in to learn how AI is augmenting the creative process in UI/UX and what it means for the future of front-end development.
