FlowEval: Reference-Based Evaluation of Generated User Interfaces
While large language models (LLMs) and coding agents are often applied to user interface (UI) development, developers find it difficult to reliably assess their proficiency in visual and interaction design. Existing evaluations either rely on human experts, who can accurately assess usability by testing critical flows but are slow and costly, or on automated judges, which are scalable but less accurate and opaque. We present FlowEval, a reference-based framework that measures whether a generated UI supports realistic interaction flows by comparing navigation traces from real websites to traces...
