Import Competitors (every) Webpage in Bubble 100% Free

Hey Bubblers,

I found a possible option to import every Webpage into Bubble.
I am using a workaround with several tools with this.
But it works to 90% accurate.

I did an import (took me 3 minutes) so you can see how the raw file looks alike when you made the copy:

Original: https://www.ottonova.de/wissen
Bubble Copy: http://ottonova.bubbleapps.io/frame_1_1

So how does it work?

You need the following tools:
Sketch (Use 30 Days Trial Download) (https://www.sketch.com/)
Html to Sketch (https://kimdal-hyeong.github.io/html-to-sketch-electron/download-analyst/)
A Free Figma Account (https://www.figma.com/)

Start with opening a new Project with Sketch.

Open Html to Sketch, enter the Domain, and Click on “Draw Page”

The HTML to Sketch will automatically import the Webpage into your opened Sketch File.
Import as many pages as you like in your Sketch File.

When you are done: Save the File in Sketch on your PC

Open your Figma Account and Create an API Key that you later can use in Bubble.

Now just create a new Project.
Upload your Sketch File into Figma.

Important!
Figma does not make automatically Frames out of your pages. So you have to change it with one click.
Change your Sites to “Frames” (Right-click on the left side menu on the folder).

And now just open your new Bubble project, enter the APIs in the Setting and Bubble will import the File.

Now you just have to change some fonts, images and what else you want to change - cause you should not use this to copy paste a competitor - but you can use it as a base to make the same idea better or your current project that is not in Bubble into a fast prototype.

Hope I could help and saves you all a lot of time.

Amazing!

One thing, the Bubble’s version is not responsive, I’ve tried both the original and the copy from my smartphone.

But it remains amazing

Thanks for this top @buero

Yes you are right.
I made the same procedure again with mobile view. Took again just 3 Minutes to make it. Should show responsive now - but yes more a gimmick then a feature haha

Do you know a way to do this if you don’t have a Mac?

yes you can skip the sketch file - there is a new add on for figma here Figma - HTML <-> Figma | Easily convert any webpage to Figma layers by URL, or turn a Figma design into code! * How does ...
