Questions
Answered
Everything you need to know about ExtractCSS
Can I use ExtractCSS to migrate from Bootstrap/Chakra to Tailwind?
Yes - that's one of the primary use cases. Extract components from your existing site and get clean Tailwind code instantly.
Can I extract components from sites I don't own?
Yes. ExtractCSS works on any website. Use it for learning, prototyping, or design inspiration. For production, ensure you have appropriate rights and customize branded elements.
How is this different from just copying CSS from DevTools?
DevTools gives you raw CSS with specificity issues, cascade problems, and no Tailwind conversion. ExtractCSS resolves all of that and outputs clean, production-ready Tailwind utilities.
What about AI-generated components?
AI tools often produce generic-looking UIs. ExtractCSS lets you capture real designs from production sites - built by professional design teams - and use them as your foundation.
What CSS frameworks are supported?
All of them. Bootstrap, Chakra UI, Material UI, Ant Design, Bulma, or any custom CSS. ExtractCSS reads computed styles from the browser, so the source framework doesn't matter.
Does it preserve responsive layouts?
Yes. Media queries are detected and converted to Tailwind breakpoint variants. Your mobile and desktop layouts stay intact.
What about CSS-in-JS libraries?
All supported. Styled-components, Emotion, Stitches, etc. ExtractCSS reads computed styles, so the authoring method doesn't matter.
Can I extract from localhost or staging?
Yes. ExtractCSS works on any page in Chrome, including localhost, staging environments, and production sites.
Is ExtractCSS free?
