How I built this landing page in minutes using v0.dev and React
Discover how generative AI is transforming frontend development. In this deep dive, I'll show you the exact process of using v0.dev to create a production-ready landing page from a single prompt.
The Challenge: Speed vs. Quality
In modern web development, building a polished landing page from scratch usually takes hours—even with Tailwind CSS. Between layout structure, responsive design, and component styling, the "boilerplate" work often drains our creative energy.
The Solution: v0.dev
I recently experimented with v0 by Vercel, a generative UI system that uses natural language to build React components. The goal was simple: Create a high-quality comparison landing page that looks professional and follows modern design principles.
My Workflow
1. Prompting: I started with a clear description of the sections I needed (Hero, Features Comparison, and CTA).
2. Iterative Refinement: Instead of coding the CSS by hand, I asked v0 to "make it dark mode," "use a bento grid for features," and "add subtle gradients."
3. Deployment: Once the UI was ready, I integrated the code into my Next.js project and deployed it to Vercel.
The Result

What impressed me most:
* Tailwind Integration: The code generated is clean, readable, and uses standard Tailwind classes.
* Component-Based: v0 understands React structure, giving me modular components I can actually maintain.
* Speed: I went from a blank screen to a fully responsive site in less than 15 minutes.
Conclusion
Generative UI isn't here to replace developers—it's here to give us superpowers. By using v0, I saved hours of UI "grunt work," allowing me to focus on the logic and performance that truly matters.
