Install
Zero to visual editing in 30 seconds
1. Install the extension
Install UiToolbar from the Chrome Web Store. No npm packages, no code changes, no config files.
2. Start the provider
The provider bridges the extension to your IDE. One command:
npx uitoolbarThis auto-detects your IDE and starts on the default port. The extension connects automatically.
3. Select and edit
Open your app in Chrome. Press Alt+S to enter select mode. Hover any element to see it highlighted — click to select it.
Type a change description in the side panel. Your agent executes it and streams the result in real-time. Done.
That's it
No <Component /> to add. No build plugin. No framework lock-in. UiToolbar works on any live page — React, Vue, vanilla HTML, production sites.
For React apps, you can optionally add a one-line script to unlock component name and file path detection.
