Is Open Codesign free and what does it cost to use?

Open Codesign is a free MIT-licensed application. It uses a BYOK (Bring Your Own Key) model, so you only pay for the LLM tokens you consume through your existing provider accounts rather than a monthly subscription.

Which AI models does Open Codesign support?

It supports 20+ models across multiple providers including Anthropic (Claude), OpenAI (GPT-4o, Codex), Google Gemini, DeepSeek, OpenRouter, SiliconFlow, and local models via Ollama. A dynamic model picker queries each provider's live catalogue, so new models appear automatically without an app update.

Can Open Codesign work offline?

Yes. Open Codesign is local-first and runs entirely on your machine, with every design session stored locally on disk. When paired with a local Ollama model it operates fully offline, and there is no backend server dependency.

How does Open Codesign compare to Claude Design and v0 by Vercel?

Unlike Claude Design (Anthropic-only, cloud-only) and v0 by Vercel (GPT-4o, cloud-only, Vercel-optimized), Open Codesign is MIT-licensed, runs locally on the desktop, supports 20+ models via BYOK, and exports framework-agnostic HTML, PDF, PPTX, ZIP, and Markdown.

What is the DESIGN.md file in Open Codesign?

DESIGN.md is a markdown file where you define your design system, such as brand colors, typography, and spacing tokens. Placed in your workspace, every generation automatically inherits these tokens so the model maintains brand coherence instead of drifting across turns.

Open Codesign：拥有6,809+星的开源Claude设计替代方案

{</* resource-info */>}

人工智能驱动的设计工具领域正在以惊人的速度发展。虽然像 Claude Design、Vercel 的 v0 和 Figma AI 这样的专有平台已经吸引了大量关注，但越来越多的开发者和设计师却渴望着透明性、所有权以及摆脱供应商锁定。于是，Open Codesign 应运而生——这是一个开源的 Claude Design 替代品，在 GitHub 上迅速获得了超过 6,809 颗星，并重新定义了技术团队如何利用 AI 辅助原型设计。

由 OpenCoworkAI 开发并以宽松的 MIT 许可证发布，Open Codesign 贯彻了一种与现代开发者深度共鸣的理念：你的提示（prompts）、你的模型、你的电脑（your prompts, your model, your laptop）。这款桌面应用将自然语言提示转化为精致的原型、幻灯片以及营销资产——完全在本地运行，并支持您已经付费使用的任何大型语言模型。

在这篇全面指南中，我们将探讨 Open Codesign 的独特之处、如何进行设置、与专有替代方案的对比，以及为什么它理应成为您设计流程中的核心工具。
