The short list

getdesign.md is the site for VoltAgent’s awesome-design-md list, with 125,000+ GitHub stars. People look elsewhere when their site isn’t in the catalog, when they don’t want a $34 emailed file, or when a file sits behind the $99 Catalog Pass.

1. Sitepeel

Sitepeel has 319 brand files, free to browse, and makes a DESIGN.md from any link right away. Every file is measured from the live page. The Chrome extension reads pages behind a login.

A Sitepeel DESIGN.md page: linear.app’s measured design system.

2. designmd.app

designmd.app calls itself an open source library of DESIGN.md files, with 759 documented files on November 5, 2026. Its page doesn’t show a tool for making your own, and it doesn’t name a license.

3. designmd.ai

A community site with “100s of free design systems” that anyone can upload to, trending lists, tags, and CLI and MCP pages. Its entries are user uploads like Genesis and Command Center, not a list of known brands.

When getdesign.md is the better pick

  • The brand you want is already in its catalog
  • You like installing a file with one npx command
  • You want the list on GitHub, MIT licensed, with a big community
  • You’d rather pay for a private file, emailed with light and dark previews

Questions

What is getdesign.md?

A catalog of ready-made DESIGN.md files for well-known sites, run by the VoltAgent team, with a free GitHub list and a CLI. It also sells starter kits and templates.

Is getdesign.md free?

Public catalog files are free to download. A file for a site you submit is $34 once, and the $99 a month Catalog Pass covers a curated set of 45+ files.

Is getdesign.md the same as awesome-design-md?

getdesign.md is the website for VoltAgent’s awesome-design-md list on GitHub, which is MIT licensed and has 125,000+ stars.

Can I get a DESIGN.md for my own site for free?

Yes. Paste the link into Sitepeel’s DESIGN.md generator. You get a few free runs, then sign in free to keep going.

Are these the brands’ official design systems?

No. getdesign.md and Sitepeel both say their files are independent analysis of public pages. Use them to learn and prototype, not to copy a brand’s logo, name or content.
