What is a free browser alternative to Figma Ghost?
Ghost Wireframe Generator is a free, browser-local way to make skeleton UI and ghost wireframes with PNG, SVG, and HTML export — plus a portable skill for any AI coding tool. It does not replace the Figma Ghost plugin inside Figma, and it is not a pixel clone of UI Generator. The wedge is code-friendly export and a model-agnostic skill.
Browser ghost vs Figma Ghost vs UI Generator.
| Option | Cost | Where it runs | Export / skill | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ghost Wireframe Generator (TDS) | Free | Browser — nothing uploaded | PNG, SVG, HTML + portable skill | Landings, HTML templates, loading skeletons in code |
| Figma Ghost plugin | Free (Figma Community) | Inside Figma | Figma layers from selection | Ghosting an existing Figma layout in place |
| UI Generator | Free / product site | Web mock library | PNG-style product mocks | Quick fake UI imagery for marketing comps |
| Ghost Wireframe Skill | Free | Any AI coding tool | SKILL.md / compact prompt | Drafting ghosts in Cursor, Claude, Codex, ChatGPT |
An honest wedge — not a clone.
Ghost / skeleton UI is not new. Figma Ghost is excellent when your source of truth is a Figma file. UI Generator is useful when you need a PNG mock fast. Tiny Design Shop ships a different loop: curated layout families, Happy Hues–style role palettes, HTML with --ghost-* variables for templates, and a skill that works with any model — without requiring Figma or an account.
v1 is library mode only. SVG convert from Figma export and Copy to Figma are backlog — if your entire workflow lives inside Figma, stay on the Ghost plugin until those land.
