penpot/penpot is an open-source design platform you can use in the browser or deploy on your own server. The latest release published on the GitHub repository is 2.18.3, a collaboration tool for handling screen design and prototyping together on the web.
The repository description and README present Penpot as a platform for product teams that need collaboration at scale. It supports open standards such as SVG, CSS, HTML and JSON along with real-time collaboration, and it builds design systems with design tokens (Design Tokens: rules that define values such as colors or spacing in one place and use them together across multiple screens), components (Components) and Variants. A developer inspect feature, plus MCP server, API and plugins, connect automation and integrated workflows. The implementation language is Clojure and the license is MPL-2.0. The repository was created on December 29, 2015 and its star count is 61420.
That said, no performance figures or actual adoption cases beyond the feature list in the repository introduction are given. Of the evaluation scores on a 10-point scale, only the Momentum item is 6.9, while the freshness, technology and quality items are empty, and what changed in 2.18.3 is not included in this material either. The feature scope and open standards support are confirmed, but whether it can be put to work right away in a real workflow is too early to judge.
