Name That UI

The visual dictionary for UI and product designers

Product Overview

Name That UI is a visual dictionary that helps you name the nameless parts of your interface. Type a description like "the little line that jumps between tabs" and it shows you the actual name — Tab Indicator — plus how it's typically implemented and which libraries ship it. Every entry includes the API symbols used to build that element, so developers can copy-paste proper code instead of inventing their own. An AI assistant suggests likely element names as you describe them, and you can also generate shareable prompts for your own design and AI tools. A companion project, Name That Vibe, applies the same idea to art direction and design styles. Name That UI is free to use and search.
