DesignMD

Product Overview

DesignMD turns any website URL into a production-grade DESIGN.md in about 12 seconds. It reads the live DOM and CSSOM — real CSS variables, real @media breakpoints, real interaction states — and extracts colour tokens, typography, spacing scale, and component patterns. Nothing is inferred from screenshots. Drop the generated DESIGN.md into your project root and AI coding agents like Cursor, Claude Code, and GitHub Copilot can read and follow that design system, preventing the dreaded "design drift" when AI builds your interfaces. A CLI lets you generate specs right from your terminal. DesignMD is free and requires no account — five analyses per day per IP. It is also open source, with a benchmarks page showing measured design systems from Stripe, Linear, GitHub, Vercel, and more.
