What it does
React Grab is a small developer tool for apps built with React, a popular way of building websites. You hover over any button, box or other element in your app and press copy.
What gets copied isn't just the look: it includes where that element lives in the source code. You paste it into your AI coding agent, which then knows exactly what to change.
Its makers say agents work faster and more accurately this way. Developers can also build their own version using its selection tools.
