| description.long | A web-based design and prototyping tool built on open web standards (SVG, HTML, CSS) that facilitates real-time collaboration between designers and developers. It supports responsive UI design with CSS-based layouts, design systems with components and tokens, interactive prototyping, and integrates with AI workflows through an extensible plugin ecosystem. | UXPin lets designers and developers create interactive prototypes using actual code-backed components from Git repositories, design systems, or open-source libraries. You design visually but work with genuine components, then export clean code ready for development. |
