Google’s Design and Development app Stitch Launched

The Times of India recently reported that at the Google I/O 2025 developer conference, Google introduced Stitch, an innovative AI-driven tool designed to streamline the app design and development process. Leveraging the capabilities of the Gemini 2.5 Pro model, Stitch enables users to generate high-quality user interface (UI) designs and corresponding frontend code using natural language descriptions or image prompts.

Combining the best of Design and Development

Stitch addresses the traditional disconnect between design and development by allowing users to:

• Generate HTML and CSS markup for app designs using simple prompts.
• Choose between Gemini 2.5 Pro and Gemini 2.5 Flash AI models for interface ideation.
• Export designs directly to Figma or refine code in an Integrated Development Environment (IDE).
• Fine-tune UI elements with customization options for themes, fonts and layouts.

This advanced multifunctionality empowers both seasoned professionals and aspiring creators to rapidly prototype and refine app designs.

How has Stitch Been Received by Industry Experts?

According to TechCrunch’s recent article, Stitch is Google’s AI-powered tool to help design apps,(May 20, 2025), “Stitch is a bit more limited in what it can do compared to some other vibe coding products, but there are a fair amount of customization options. The tool supports directly exporting to Figma and can expose code so that it can be refined and worked on in an IDE. Stitch also lets users fine-tune any of the app design elements it generates.”

Accessibility and Future Implications

Currently available through Google Labs, Stitch supports English-language prompts and is accessible via web browsers. Its integration with tools like Figma and support for direct code exportation make it a versatile addition to the developer's toolkit.

As AI continues to permeate various aspects of everyday technology, tools and resources like Stitch show the potential for AI to enhance creativity and efficiency in software development. By simplifying design transitions from concept to implementation, Stitch is poised to become a user-friendly and ideal resource within the app design and development arena.

Later this year, Google will also launch another new called Jules, designed to enable developers to maximize working efficiency relating to coding tasks.

It will integrate directly into GitHub workflows, allowing Jules to review and edit directly from within the hub.
