Onlook
Cursor for Designers — craft, edit, and ship web experiences with AI.

Onlook is a visual code editor that lets designers and product managers work directly inside a real React codebase using a drag-and-drop canvas. It combines AI-assisted design, component editing, and code generation so that design changes are always in sync with source code. The tool is open-source and can be self-hosted, with a hosted cloud version available for teams.
Users import their React codebase into Onlook's visual canvas, make design changes via drag-and-drop or AI chat, and those changes are written directly back to the source code in real time.
