This is the code for the article 'Turning design mockups into code with deep learning' on FloydHub's blog.
The field took of last year when Tony Beltramelli introduced the pix2code paper and Airbnb launched sketching interfaces.
Within three years deep learning will change front-end development. It will increase prototyping speed and lower the barrier for building software.
Currently, the largest barrier to automating front-end development is computing power. However, we can use current deep learning algorithms, along with synthesized training data, to start exploring artificial front-end automation right now.
In the provided models, we’ll teach a neural network how to code a basic a HTML and CSS website based on a picture of a design mockup.
We’ll build the neural network in three iterations. Starting with a Hello World version, followed by the main neural network layers, and ending by training it to generalize.
A quick overview of the process:
pip install floyd-cli
floyd login
git clone https://github.com/emilwallner/Screenshot-to-code-in-Keras
cd Screenshot-to-code-in-Keras
floyd init projectname
floyd run --gpu --env tensorflow-1.4 --data emilwallner/datasets/imagetocode/1:data --mode jupyterpip install keras
pip install tensorflow
pip install pillow
pip install h5py
pip install jupytergit clone https://github.com/emilwallner/Screenshot-to-code-in-Keras
cd Screenshot-to-code-in-Keras/local
jupyter notebook
Go do the desired notebook, files that end with '.ipynb'. To run the model, go to the menu then click on Cell > Run all
The final version, the Bootstrap version, is prepared with a small set to test run the model. If you want to try it with all the data, you need to download the data here: https://www.floydhub.com/emilwallner/datasets/imagetocode, and specify the correct dir_name.
