But an open source solution may already be here.

The future of user interfaces will be generative.
In a few years, dropdowns and radio buttons will become irrelevant.
That’s because we’re moving towards a future where UI/UX adapts to your needs.
The implications are enormous. Take, for instance, accessibility. When was the last time your grandma fired up After Effects and edited a video?
Now imagine if After Effects automatically changed its interface to be simple. Simple enough for a grandma to use. And then, when you fired it up, it welcomed you with its full Swiss army knife.
A user interface that can adapt, will change the world.
But there’s a problem.

A user interface that can adapt, will change the world.
But there’s a problem.
Current generative UIs are disposable.
The current generation is optimized for chatbots. And that’s because it’s easier.
Conversations are temporary. Deletable. Inpersistent.
You create an interface for the user’s need, and when they’ve accomplished the goal of the chat, they can delete and move on with their day.
Current genUI tooling creates interfaces that are disposable. That doesn’t work for websites.
Syntux — consistent, cacheable generative UIs. For the web.

Today, this problem may have just been solved.
*syntux, *a declarative genUI library (think syntax for your ux), is built specifically to bridge this gap. It’s goal?
To create user interfaces that are consistent, cacheable and token-efficient.
How? It uses your components.
By generating a schema for the user interface (known as the React Interface Schema), it’s able to bind to your custom components and be reused for different values you wish to display.
The result? A generative UI library that’s ready for the web.
