v0
Vercel's AI UI generator that produces React components and full pages from a text prompt, ready to copy into a Next.js project.
Overview
v0 is a generative UI tool from Vercel that creates React and Next.js components from a written description or a screenshot. The output uses Tailwind CSS and shadcn/ui components, and the result can be copied into an existing codebase or opened directly in a new Vercel project. You can refine the design through follow-up prompts and switch between light and dark themes. It is aimed at developers who want to accelerate front-end work rather than replace the coding process entirely.
