How does AI UI generation actually work?
A concise mental model: prompts → plans → constrained codegen → previews—and where human review still matters.

Definition — generation is not “random React”
Modern AI UI systems usually combine retrieval, planning, and constrained templating so models emit components that compile. The preview step matters because it closes the loop: you see layout, state mistakes, and accessibility gaps early.
Orbit frames this as a product run: your prompt anchors requirements, a plan orders work, and iterations stay attached to the project rather than a disposable chat transcript.

Frequently Asked Questions
- [Q]Do models “understand” design systems?
- They approximate patterns from prompts and context. You still enforce tokens, lint rules, and component APIs in code review.
