A community library of DESIGN.md files, with an MCP server.
DESIGNmd is a gallery of DESIGN.md files other people have written, so you can take a finished design system instead of authoring one. Browse by style or tag, download the file, drop it in your project. It also ships an MCP server, so your agent can search and install a design system without you opening the site, and two skills that teach an agent to author or find one. Run by designkit-md, not by Google: everything in it is user-submitted, so read a file before you adopt it, the way you would read a skill before installing it.
