How it works

From idea to live page.

02Shape every screenTablet and phone are laid out for you. Move anything by hand and your change is kept.
03Preview itOpen the real site in a new tab, with every page and link working.
04Export itA responsive website, ready to upload anywhere - or a React project to build on. What you drew is what visitors see.
Every screen

One design. Every device.

Switch screens at the top of the editor. Each size keeps its own design, and menus that open as drawers are part of it.

Features

Everything a page needs.

The craft stays yours. The code is handled.

Typography that holds

Every Google font in every weight, text styles you reuse, lists and linked words.

Shapes, shadows, effects

Gradients, blur, blend modes, outlined letters and a shadow mixer you can steer by hand.

Menus and pop-ups

Design drawers, dialogs and hover states. They open and close in the exported site.

Components and styles

Make a header once and reuse it. Change a colour style and every page follows.

Live preview

Open your site in a real browser tab before you export, with every page linked.

Code you can keep

Plain HTML and CSS, or React components in JavaScript or TypeScript - with real headings, lists and links. Host it wherever you like.

The export

Exactly as you made it.

  • Responsive layout that flows, not a picture of your page
  • Pixel-true at every screen you designed, smooth in between
  • No made-up styling: only what you set ends up in the code
  • Real HTML: headings, lists, links and buttons
  • React with typed components when you want TypeScript - the same page, the same quality

About

Built to close the gap between design and code.

Methalo was made to remove a friction we kept seeing between design and development. A designer finishes a page; a developer rebuilds it by hand, pixel by pixel, guessing at spacing and fonts along the way. Every developer has wished the design simply were the code, exact to the last pixel.

With modern tools that is possible. In Methalo you design the page, for every screen, and the export is that page: clean, responsive HTML and CSS, or React in JavaScript or TypeScript, that matches what you drew. No handoff, no rebuild, nothing lost in translation. You design, we handle the rest.

The name

methalo

me·tha·lonoun, plural of mothaloSepedi · Setswana · Sesotho

  1. Lines drawn or printed on a page.
  2. Stripes or streaks, like those of a zebra: methalo ya pitsi ya naga.
  3. The lines of a poem; verses.

Every page starts as lines: the edge of a column, the row a headline sits on, the gap between two cards. You draw them. Methalo turns them into code.
