Builder.io - Component Generation

Overview

Estimated time: 25–35 minutes

This guide shows practical generation patterns for components, composition strategies, and how to integrate Builder.io outputs into modern stacks.

Component Patterns

• Atomic components: Buttons, inputs, badges — generate minimal, reusable units.
• Composed components: Cards, product lists — assemble atomic components into larger patterns.
• Themed components: Use token maps to ensure consistency across outputs.

Example: Generate a Product Card (React)

Prompt:
"Create a responsive React product card with image, title, price, rating (stars), and an Add to Cart button. Use CSS modules and no external UI libraries."

Integration & Export

• Export as a component package and import into your repo as part of CI builds.
• Map design tokens to your theme variables to avoid manual edits.
• Run visual regression tests on the exported component snapshots.
