**A portable visual canvas for coding agents.**
Designboard lets an AI agent draft real HTML artboards and hand them back on an editable, pan-and-zoom canvas. Refine text, color, spacing, layout, and source directly in the browser, then save the entire design as one portable HTML file.
No hosted service. No account. No build step. No lock-in.
