What Is Penpot?

Penpot, built by Kaleidos, is an open-source design platform for interfaces, prototypes and design systems that runs in the browser or on a team's own servers. Layouts use CSS Grid and Flex, and Inspect mode exports CSS, HTML, SVG and JSON. Teams can self-host with Docker, Kubernetes, Elestio, OpenShift or TrueNAS, extend the editor through plugins on Penpothub, and connect AI agents through an MCP server.

Best for: Product and engineering teams that need a design tool they can self-host and audit as open-source code.
