Claude Code Designs Printable Business Cards via HTML + Playwright

A Reddit user shared a practical workflow where Claude Code (the AI coding agent) designed printable business cards entirely from scratch. The process involved:

• Providing Claude with a photo of their cats and their website link as input.
• Claude generated an HTML business card design, then used Playwright (headless browser automation) to take screenshots and iteratively refine the layout until the user was satisfied.
• After the design was finalized, the user bought Avery printable business card paper from Walmart (standard perforated 2x5 grid sheets).
• Claude produced an HTML page with a print button and a 2x5 grid matching the Avery template. The page printed perfectly aligned on the card stock — no manual tweaking needed.

The entire process took about 10 minutes. The user reported results “better than expected.”

Key Takeaways

• Claude can bridge visual design and print layout by iterating via browser automation.
• Using Playwright for screenshot feedback lets Claude self-correct layout issues without human intervention.
• The final HTML template works directly with inexpensive Avery business card paper — no professional design tools required.

This is a solid example of using AI coding agents for physical print production, not just software generation.
