Design In The Browser
Design In The Browser is a visual AI frontend tool for working on web interfaces by clicking elements instead of describing them in text. It is aimed at frontend development workflows where tab-switching and screenshot-pasting get in the way of explaining what should change.
The interface centers on point-and-click editing: a user can click any element to tell AI what to change, drag to select an area for visual context, and jump from an element directly to its source code. It also supports multi-edit, allowing multiple elements to be selected and changes queued together. Other built-in functions include an integrated terminal, a full Chrome DevTools inspector with DOM, JavaScript, and network inspection, responsive testing across desktop, tablet, and mobile viewports, a CSS inspector for copying style values, reference image support, and design token references for CSS variables and Tailwind tokens.
The tool requires Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Antigravity, or Qwen CLI v1.8.0. It is available for macOS 13+ and Windows 10+, with downloads offered for both platforms. It is free and open source, and the site says there is no account needed to start using it.
