Why we included this project
Open Design is a local-first desktop app for teams that want to generate visual work without leaving their coding tools. Give Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or any of the 20+ supported CLIs a brief, and the app produces prototypes, landing pages, dashboards, and slide decks, exporting real HTML, PDF, PPTX, or MP4 files instead of locked-in previews. Because it runs on your own API keys, there's no separate design subscription and no vendor lock-in, which makes it a practical fit for small teams. Designers and developers looking for a Figma alternative that thinks in code will also find the sandboxed iframe preview, brand-grade design systems, and composable skills useful for moving from a prompt to a working artifact quickly.
