Paste HTML into the canvas

Bring structured HTML from a browser, prototype, or generated snippet into flare.design as editable canvas material.

HTML paste is useful when you already have a visual layout in a browser, no-code tool, or generated artifact and want to keep working in the canvas.

Copy from the source

Select the rendered content you want to bring over, then copy it from the browser or source tool. For generated snippets, prefer copying rendered output instead of only copying the raw code.

Paste into flare.design

Open a canvas, click an empty area, and paste. flare.design will convert supported text, image, and layout information into canvas material you can rearrange.

Import through MCP

Agents can also call insert_html on the flare.design MCP server. One HTML snippet or document becomes one editable frame on the canvas, with supported text, simple boxes, and public HTTPS images as child layers.

This MCP import is for structured editable material. It is not a browser screenshot or a Playwright render. For pixel-perfect HTML rendering, render the page to an image first, upload that local file as an asset, then place it on the canvas.

Prepare cleaner HTML

For better results, keep the source simple:

  • Use real text instead of text baked into screenshots.
  • Keep layout blocks clear and avoid deeply nested wrappers.
  • Inline important colors, font sizes, and spacing when the source tool allows it.
  • Avoid scripts, forms, iframes, and interactive-only elements.

Clean up after paste

After paste, check reading order, font fallback, image scale, and contrast. Treat the imported layout as a starting point, then simplify it into the version you actually want to animate or export.
