Dimensional Drawing: AI skill for technical UI component schematics

X postEnes ÖztürkTool

Enes Öztürk has launched dimensional-drawing, an open-source skill package that guides AI agents to create detailed technical spec sheets for UI components inspired by Apple's accessory guidelines.

Key points

  1. Transforms UI components from source files, Storybook stories, URLs, or screenshots into dense single-page HTML schematics.
  2. Measures and documents paddings, gaps, radii, exploded layers, and viewport constraints using variable relationships instead of hardcoded numbers.
  3. Leaves out concrete copy and branding, ensuring the architectural blueprint remains valid across text changes.
  4. Works across Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Codex, and other coding agents via SKILL.md files or the skills CLI.
  5. Includes a motion extension that turns drawings into ~10-second animated clips via Claude Motion or a headless Playwright and ffmpeg pipeline.

Why it matters

Handing off component specs between design and engineering often requires tedious manual drafting. Automating architectural drawings directly via AI prompts provides consistent, blueprint-style documentation straight from code.

Analysis

Borrowing technical drawing conventions from industrial engineering strips away superficial styling to emphasize core layout architecture. Strict conventions—such as monochrome linework, slot abstractions, and explicit TBD placeholders—keep agent output grounded and prevent speculative visual noise.

Made a skill for dimensional drawings of UI components. Inspired by Apple's accessory drawings, it documents a component's architecture into a spec sheet. t.co/KKb9sOgTN8 t.co/0Z0Kpjk6bD

  • @Ivrqen @enesozturkdev making flexbox look like aerospace engineering actually goes so hard
  • @nujhongc @enesozturkdev I've always had something similar but it looked so bad in my Figma! Now it's much better! It also reminded me of t.co/o4vwDMyizL so I threw it at Claude too t.co/zYfKis5Vaz
  • @thiagobrez @enesozturkdev wow this looks awesome!
  • @devanemoss @enesozturkdev @grok can this be a mind map to visualize and design all ui/ux all at once
