Software factories are automated systems that generate code at scale, with human-led versions emphasizing developer judgment and AI-only versions prioritizing speed but potentially sacrificing comprehension. The key difference involves the degree of human oversight and decision-making authority within these systems. Organizations must carefully choose which quality checks to implement and how much autonomy to grant to AI agents in code generation workflows.
Ditto is an open-source tool that converts websites into clean, componentized Next.js or Vite code without using LLMs, instead employing a deterministic cloning process. The tool completes website conversions within 5 minutes and extracts design systems, tokens, fonts, interactions, and responsive breakpoints into reusable components. It offers three deployment options—self-hosted, hosted API, or integration with AI agents—enabling developers to generate production-ready codebases as starting points instead of building from blank templates.
