PxCook Official - Professional UI Design Collaboration Tool

PxCook, also known as Pixel Chef, is a smooth and cross-platform slicing design tool designed for UI designers. PxCook is an essential annotation and slicing tool for UI designers, effectively solving issues such as transparent images, sizes, and rulers during the design process.

Compatible with Mainstream Design Tools

Compatible with various mainstream design tools! Supports high-fidelity designs from Photoshop, Sketch, Adobe XD, Figma, and online delivery of Axure and prototype designs.

Easily View Annotations

Simply click or hover over the design to view all layer data and get annotations.

Intelligent and Accurate Annotation

Multiple intelligent annotation methods to free your hands; 4 types of manual annotation for flexible use.

Auto-Generate Code

One-click copy of property values, auto-generate CSS code, easily copy, view, and export all style codes for Web, iOS, and Android platforms.

What is PxCook 3.0?

In short, it’s a productivity tool for designers and developers. It supports drag‑and‑drop upload with automatic smart annotation, plus artboard and project management. After designers finish the draft, developers can generate code with one click for CSS, XML, Swift, Objective‑C, and React Native.

For teams that still require certain manual annotations, PxCook combines fast manual annotation with automatic ones—adopting an “auto first, manual supplement” workflow for efficiency.

As a product focused on design and delivery, version 3.0 improves performance, usability, and cross‑platform capabilities. It supports both Windows and macOS, and works well with mainstream tools like Photoshop and Sketch.
