How To Convert PSD UI to Working HTML Element Falls Among Frequently Asked Questions. There are many ways which we have explained and there is no universally one way. Many many articles are there on the whole Internet covering the topic – how to convert PSD UI to working HTML element falls among Frequently Asked Questions, just for examples :

#Example 3

The third example is quite easy to realize than the other two. Everyone knows, CSS and HTML will be required to convert them to really working stuffs from a Graphically great looking material.

The first one, if you recall; has much resemblance with the Admin Menu in WordPress (ver 3.8.1). It is never possible to use these PSD UI unless the appropriate usage is thought about. This statement is very easy to read, but difficult to realize.

We can make the easy #Example 3 go difficult, if you think three situations only when we are thinking of creating a WordPress Theme out of it in this situations :

  1. A Standalone WordPress Theme
  2. A Child theme of a specific Framework (Genesis, Thesis etc.)

 

How To Convert PSD UI to Working HTML Element : What To Do Then?

 

In most cases, there will JQuery actions required to be added or Icon Font required to be used. In many situations, you will need a kind of closer looking project. The coding part is most difficult than designing part. Most creative people has a wrongness in the approach. It is never possible (or less possible) to search for a PSD UI (or got an UI in hand, which looks great) and then convert it to a really working stuff.

You must have to think about a Project first, which you are working with; then find some good UI which it will fit from the structural and functional point of view. Quite disappointing but these are most important points :

 

  1. Understand the functional points
  2. Understand the structural points
  3. Understand which Platform the UI can fit with
  4. Understand the possible practical expectation

 

The reason, many of these PSD UI are given free of cost is for a big reason – many of them are not practical to convert to a really working thing or too much complex to be converted. Think of jPlayer :

and this PSD :

that is not easy!

How To Convert PSD UI to Working HTML Element

So, How To Convert PSD UI to Working HTML Element – definitely is an important question and the examples at the beginning offers you something valuable but there is no universal answer. It is always a redundant task to slice PSD™s into pixel perfect graphics and convert it into CSS code manually. This can be done automatically too. People using the newer versions of Photoshop(CS 6 and CC) can avail the built-in functions to convert graphics directly into stylesheet code.
There are however some other tools or PS Plugins like CSS Hat, Webbsy, MacRabbit those are getting good reviews. CSS Hat also supports translation into CSS-Preprocessor syntax like Sass, SCSS, LESS, and Stylus.
