What Is Fragments?
Fragments is the desktop app for directing frontend work in your running React app. Open a project, point at what you want to change, give your coding agent the instruction, and review the result beside the app.
It is Mac only for now. Local work is free, and paid plans are coming soon. Those plans are not available to buy yet.
Start with the app
Fragments brings the running app, its source, your design system and your agent into one place. You can work with an existing React app; adopting the Fragments component library is optional.
The app helps you inspect pages, direct Claude Code or Codex, check design drift, and compare agent changes. Review what changed before keeping or undoing a turn. Coverage and available actions depend on the project and the captured evidence.
See the desktop guide for setup and the Checks guide for reviewing design drift.
The packages
Public Fragments packages use the @usefragments/* scope:
@usefragments/uiprovides React components, styles and design tokens. Start with the package installation guide.@usefragments/fontprovides the Fragments font assets.
Install them from npm and import them where they help. You don't need either to open a project in the app.
