UI2App: Benchmarking Visual Interaction Inference in Executable Web Application Generation
arXiv:2607. 06306v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated growing competence in web page generation.
Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated growing competence in web page generation. However, existing text-driven approaches rely on complex prompts that impose substantial demands on users and offer limited expressivity for page layout and cross-page visual coherence.

arXiv:2605. 26144v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present VISTA (VIsual Spec-To-App Benchmark), a benchmark for evaluating the end-to-end web-app generation capabilities of LLM-based agents.
RILA is an execution‑driven agent that integrates browser rendering into the generation loop for interactive web development. It uses an Action Interaction Verification module to replay reference interactions on generated pages, collecting execution‑aware observations, and an Execution‑aware Rendering Score to jointly assess interaction correctness and visual fidelity during iterative optimization. A data synthesis pipeline further augments training data, enabling RILA to significantly improve interaction and visual quality across foundation models, even outperforming larger one‑shot generators.
arXiv:2606. 00154v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advancements in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have achieved remarkable progress in multimodal reasoning and code generation, catalyzing a new paradigm for front-end development.
arXiv:2508. 04412v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The advent of large language models (LLMs) has sparked an evolution of autonomous web browsing agents: given a web browsing task and serialised user interface (UI) state, an LLM is expected to suggest input actions that incrementally solve the given task.
The paper surveys Multimodal Code Intelligence, focusing on tasks where code is generated, edited, refined, or reasoned about under visually grounded inputs such as screenshots, charts, and videos. It categorizes the field by the role of code—rendered artifact, editable structure, intermediate reasoning trace, or executable tool interface—and organizes benchmarks into four domains: Graphical User Interface, Scientific Visualization, Structured Graphics, and Frontier Tasks and Frameworks. The authors argue that reliable evaluation must include evidence of semantics and interaction beyond visual fidelity, and propose four verification-centered research directions to advance the field toward evidence-grounded executable systems.
arXiv:2607. 10079v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Digital Adoption Platforms (DAPs) are embedded overlays widely used on web systems to guide users through operations inside a page, helping them get started with unfamiliar interfaces quickly.
arXiv:2607. 28645v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent multimodal large language models can convert visual designs directly into executable code, but real mobile products require multiple screenshots to become a buildable codebase with shared components and working navigation.
