Alva is a design tool for creating living prototypes built from real React code components, letting designers and developers compose working interfaces from a shared component library. It is a TypeScript-based desktop application released under the MIT license.

Use cases

  • build interactive prototypes from real React components
  • let designers compose UIs using a design system's code components
  • sketch product concepts quickly without writing full apps
  • bridge the gap between design mockups and production code
  • iterate on component-based designs with a team

When to choose

  • your team uses React and wants prototypes made from actual code components
  • you maintain a design system and want designers to use it directly
  • you prefer code-backed prototypes over static mockup tools

When to avoid

  • you need a actively developed tool with recent updates and support
  • your stack is not React-based
  • you only need static mockups or wireframes without code components
