Abstract
Facilitating code re-use includes receiving a first design document. The first user design document specifies a graphical layout of a first set of user interface elements of a user interface of a first application. First source code associated with the design document is received. The first source code is configured to implement the first set of user interface elements of the user interface. A processor extracts the first set of user interface elements from the first user interface design document. A first portion of the first source code corresponding to a first user interface element of the first set of user interface elements is identified. The first portion of the first source code is encapsulated into a module to enable re-use of the portion of the source code in a second application.
