Penpot is the first open-source design tool for design and code collaboration. Designers can create stunning designs, interactive prototypes, design systems at scale, while developers enjoy ready-to-use code and make their workflow easy and fast. And all of this with no handoff drama.
Available on browser or self-hosted, Penpot works with open standards like SVG, CSS, HTML and JSON, and it’s free!
The latest updates take Penpot even further. It’s the first design tool to integrate native design tokens—a single source of truth to improve efficiency and collaboration between product design and development. With the huge 2.0 release, Penpot took the platform to a whole new level. This update introduces the ground-breaking CSS Grid Layout feature, a complete UI redesign, a new Components system, and much more.

🎇 Design, code, and Open Source meet at Penpot Fest! Be part of the 2025 edition in Madrid, Spain, on October 9-10.
Penpot expresses designs as code. Designers can do their best work and see it will be beautifully implemented by developers in a two-way collaboration.
Penpot plugins let you expand the platform's capabilities, give you the flexibility to integrate it with other apps, and design custom solutions.
Penpot was built to serve both designers and developers and create a fluid design-code process. You have the choice to enjoy real-time collaboration or play "solo".
Work with ready-to-use code and make your workflow easy and fast. The inspect tab gives instant access to SVG, CSS and HTML code.
Provide your team or organization with a completely owned collaborative design tool. Use Penpot's cloud service or deploy your own Penpot server.
Penpot offers integration into the development toolchain, thanks to its support for webhooks and an API accessible through access tokens.
With Penpot you can design libraries to share and reuse; turn design elements into components and tokens to allow reusability and scalability; and build realistic user flows and interactions.
With Penpot’s standardized design tokens format, you can easily reuse and sync tokens across different platforms, workflows, and disciplines.
Penpot is the only design & prototype platform that is deployment agnostic. You can use it or deploy it anywhere.
Learn how to install it with Elestio and Docker, or other options on our website.
