## What is OpenDesign

🎨 **The open-source Claude Design alternative.** &nbsp;🖥️ **Local-first native desktop app for macOS and Windows.** &nbsp;⚡ **Composable skills, brand-grade `DESIGN.md` design systems, and ready-to-use plugins.** &nbsp;🖼️ Generates **web · desktop · mobile prototypes**, **live dashboards / artifacts**, **decks**, **images**, **video**, plus **HyperFrames** motion graphics. 🔒 Sandboxed iframe preview · HTML / PDF / PPTX / MP4 export. &nbsp;🤖 **Runs on DeepSeek Harness (`dsh`) · Claude Code · OpenClaw · Codex · Cursor · OpenCode · Qwen · Copilot · Amp · Hermes · Kimi · Antigravity and 26 distinct local CLI executables**, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint via BYOK.

OpenDesign is what you get when the **agent-native** loop Anthropic shipped with Claude Design — discover the brief, lock the direction, stream the artifact, critique, deliver — stops being closed and becomes a **filesystem of functional skills, rendering design templates, design systems, and plugins** that the coding agents already on your laptop can read, write, and remix. Your CLI becomes the design engine, your laptop becomes the studio, and your team's `DESIGN.md` becomes the brand contract.

It's also the **Figma alternative for the agent era** — instead of pushing pixels on a canvas, it delivers single-page artifacts in real CSS, real fonts, real components, exported straight to HTML / PDF / PPTX / MP4 — already shaped by your design system, already runnable inside the agent you use every day.
