Tailwind export

Generate a Tailwind theme from any website

Design Snap is a free Chrome extension that turns any website into a Tailwind theme. It extracts the site's real colors, fonts, border-radii and shadows, then generates a ready-to-paste tailwind.config.js object — or a Tailwind v4 @theme block with PRO. No DevTools digging, no copying values one by one.

How to generate a Tailwind theme from a website

Generating a Tailwind theme from an existing website takes three steps with Design Snap: install the extension, extract the page's design tokens, and copy the generated Tailwind configuration into your project. The whole process runs locally in your browser and takes under a minute.

  1. Install

    Add Design Snap to Chrome from the Chrome Web Store. Free plan, no account.

  2. Extract

    Open the website whose design you want to reuse and press Extract. Colors, fonts, radii and shadows appear in about a second.

  3. Copy the Tailwind config

    Click Tailwind to copy a theme.extend object — or Tailwind v4 (PRO) for a CSS-first @theme block.

What the Tailwind export looks like

Design Snap maps the extracted tokens to Tailwind's theme structure: colors become named entries in theme.extend.colors, detected typefaces fill fontFamily, and unique radii and shadows land in borderRadius and boxShadow. Everything is generated ready to paste — no cleanup pass needed.

tailwind.config.js Free
theme: {
  extend: {
    colors: {
      primary: '#6366f1',
      surface: '#f8fafc',
      ink: '#0f172a',
    },
    fontFamily: { sans: ['Inter'] },
    borderRadius: { md: '8px' },
    boxShadow: { sm: '0 1px 3px rgba(0,0,0,.1)' },
  },
}
theme.css Tailwind v4PRO
@theme {
  --color-primary: #6366f1;
  --color-surface: #f8fafc;
  --color-ink: #0f172a;
  --font-sans: 'Inter', sans-serif;
  --radius-md: 8px;
  --shadow-sm: 0 1px 3px rgb(0 0 0 / .1);
}

Why extract the theme instead of rebuilding it

A Tailwind theme built from a site's real computed styles is accurate by construction. Design Snap ranks colors by how often they actually appear on the page, filters out generic font fallbacks, and deduplicates radii and shadows — so the generated theme reflects the design system in use, not a guess.

  • Colors ranked by real frequency of use — the site's primary color surfaces first
  • Custom font families only; generic fallbacks like sans-serif are filtered out
  • Unique border-radii and box-shadows, deduplicated with live previews
  • Works on any site Chrome can read: production, staging, localhost
  • 100% local analysis — the pages you visit are never sent anywhere
