Awesome DESIGN.md

Copy a DESIGN.md into your project, tell your AI agent “build me a page that looks like this,” and generate high-quality UI that stays visually consistent with the design language.

Built with real design depth — including analyzed patterns, tokens, and rules — for high-quality UI generation, not surface-level outputs.

What is DESIGN.md?

DESIGN.md is a new concept introduced by Google Stitch. A plain-text design system document that AI agents read to generate consistent UI.

It’s just a markdown file. No Figma exports, no JSON schemas, no special tooling. Drop it into your project root and any AI coding agent or Google Stitch instantly understands how your UI should look. Markdown is the format LLMs read best, so there’s nothing to parse or configure.

File Who reads it What it defines
AGENTS.md Coding agents How to build the project
DESIGN.md Design agents How the project should look and feel

This repo provides ready-to-use DESIGN.md files extracted from real websites.

A Saturday series — DESIGN.md files extracted from the web of the 1990s. Drop one in and tell your AI agent to build a period-accurate vintage UI.

What’s Inside Each DESIGN.md

Every file follows the Stitch DESIGN.md format with extended sections:

# Section What it captures
1 Visual Theme & Atmosphere Mood, density, design philosophy
2 Color Palette & Roles Semantic name + hex + functional role
3 Typography Rules Font families, full hierarchy table
4 Component Stylings Buttons, cards, inputs, navigation with states
5 Layout Principles Spacing scale, grid, whitespace philosophy
6 Depth & Elevation Shadow system, surface hierarchy
7 Do’s and Don’ts Design guardrails and anti-patterns
8 Responsive Behavior Breakpoints, touch targets, collapsing strategy
9 Agent Prompt Guide Quick color reference, ready-to-use prompts

Each site includes:

File Purpose
DESIGN.md The design system (what agents read)
preview.html Visual catalog showing color swatches, type scale, buttons, cards
preview-dark.html Same catalog with dark surfaces
