OpenDesign
A local AI design workspace that uses coding agents to create editable prototypes, slides and media, with desktop apps and self-hosted deployment.
Alternative to:
OpenDesign is a design workspace for teams that want to turn briefs into working prototypes and visual deliverables with their chosen coding agent. It keeps previews and editable project files together so designers and developers can refine the same work.
- Prototypes and dashboards: Create interactive web experiences with live previews, then hand the HTML and CSS to a coding assistant for further development.
- Reusable brand rules: Apply your design system to generated work or have an agent adapt components in an existing repository; plugins also support Figma and Pencil workflows for React, Next.js and Vue.
- Slides and media: Build decks with speaker notes and export HTML, PDF or PPTX, generate images through model APIs, or create MP4 motion graphics with HyperFrames.
- Agent and model choice: Connect Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, DeepSeek Harness or OpenCode, or use your own API credentials with Ollama, LM Studio, vLLM and OpenAI-compatible endpoints.
OpenDesign is open source under Apache 2.0. Desktop apps support macOS on Apple Silicon and Intel, plus Windows x64. Linux requires running from source. You can also self-host with Docker or deploy the web app on Vercel; OpenDesign Cloud provides a hosted option.
Local coding-agent runs write project files on your machine. Cloud agents and external model APIs send requests to their providers. Scrubbed safety and reliability telemetry stays enabled; product analytics and session replay require consent.
