Penpot is an open-source, browser-based design and prototyping platform for product teams, built with Clojure/ClojureScript. It offers UI design, interactive prototyping, design systems with tokens, real-time multiplayer collaboration, and full self-hosting with an open API, plugin system, and MCP server for AI workflows.
Use cases
- design UI mockups and wireframes in the browser
- build interactive prototypes to share with stakeholders
- create and maintain design systems with components and design tokens
- self-host a Figma alternative for data privacy and ownership
- collaborate in real time between designers and developers
- convert designs to code and code to design with open standards like CSS, HTML, SVG
- extend the design tool with plugins or AI agents via MCP
When to choose
- you need an open-source, self-hostable design platform with no vendor lock-in
- your team wants design-to-code workflows based on open web standards
- you need real-time multiplayer design collaboration at scale
- you want to integrate design tooling with AI agents, webhooks, or a plugin ecosystem
When to avoid
- you rely on advanced features exclusive to proprietary tools like Figma's ecosystem
- you need a lightweight desktop-only design tool without server infrastructure
- you lack the capacity to self-host and prefer not to use the cloud offering
