About Piny
Piny is a visual editor designed for developers working with Astro, React, Next.js, and Tailwind CSS, operating directly within IDEs like Visual Studio Code, Cursor, and Windsurf. It allows users to edit code visually, navigate components, and streamline styling without special setup. All edits are made directly in the code, ensuring developers maintain full control. Piny offers powerful free features for styling and navigating projects without requiring an account. Visual Tailwind Controls enable intuitive styling by clicking on elements, with changes immediately reflected in the code and automatic document saving to trigger hot reloads. The Tailwind Class Inspector helps manage complex styles in an editable tree of classes and states. Users can edit Tailwind classes directly within strings, variables, and even in non-React/Astro code.
