Replace the @penpot/tokenscript npm package (the TypeScript interpreter) with penpot/tokenscript-interpreter, a Clojure and ClojureScript interpreter that now lives in its own repository and compiles into the frontend build. The frontend adapter (app.main.data.tokenscript) resolves tokens with it behind the existing :tokenscript flag and maps its results to the values and errors the workspace uses: - Token values are validated by the interpreter's token types, passed by their DTCG names: `1foo` is not a dimension, a number has no unit, an opacity is between 0 and 1. Penpot only adds its own limits (font weight names, text decoration keywords). - Division by zero, incompatible units, unknown functions and function arguments out of range get messages of their own, and token pills show the message of their error. - Font family names are quoted before resolving, as in the adapter this replaces (#11750): `Red Hat` stays one name. The token form's value input passed the token name to the tokenscript resolver in place of the typed value, and no name at all for a new token. It now resolves the typed value under the form's token name, as the StyleDictionary path does. StyleDictionary stays the default until the interpreter is stable. frontend/deps.edn pins the interpreter by tag and commit, v0.1.0. Signed-off-by: Florian Schroedl <flo.schroedl@gmail.com>

Penpot is the open-source design platform for teams that build digital products at scale.
Penpot’s key strength lies in giving you full ownership of your design infrastructure. Built on open source and designed for self-hosting, it puts teams in complete control of their design environment supporting strict compliance and governance requirements. Whether used in the browser or deployed on your own servers, Penpot works with open standards like SVG, CSS, HTML, and JSON.
Real-time collaboration strengthens this foundation, helping teams scale and bring design closer to the product through top-tier capabilities. Additionally, developers feel at home using Penpot, because design is expressed as code, enabling a direct translation and shipping products faster.
Best-in-class native Design Tokens provide a single source of truth between design and development. They ensure consistency, improve collaboration, and make it easier to manage complex design systems.
The MCP server takes it further by enabling multi-directional workflows between design and code. A powerful open API and plugin system makes the workspace programmable, enabling automation, AI-driven workflows, and integrations with the tools and systems you already use.
With CSS Grid and Flex Layout, teams can design responsive interfaces that behave like real code from the start.
Combined, these features turn Penpot into a full-stack design platform for building scalable design systems and fully integrated product development processes.

Why Penpot
Penpot connects design, code, and AI workflows through a code-based approach, making designs readable by developers and AI via the MCP server. This approach helps teams ship what’s actually designed and manage design systems at scale with powerful design tokens. As a self-hosted, open-source and real-time collaboration platform, Penpot offers full flexibility, security, and ownership without vendor lock-in. Learn more about why Penpot is the platform for your team.
Plugin system
Penpot plugins let you expand the platform's capabilities, give you the flexibility to integrate it with other apps, and design custom solutions.
Designed for developers
Penpot was built to serve both designers and developers and create a fluid design-code process. You have the choice to enjoy real-time collaboration or play "solo".
Inspect mode
Work with ready-to-use code and make your workflow easy and fast. The inspect tab gives instant access to SVG, CSS and HTML code.
Integrations
Penpot offers integration into the development toolchain, thanks to its support for webhooks and an API accessible through access tokens.
Building Design Systems: design tokens, components and variants
Penpot brings design systems to code-minded teams: a single source of truth with native Design Tokens, Components, and Variants for scalable, reusable, and consistent UI across projects and platforms.
Getting started
Penpot is the only design & prototype platform that is deployment agnostic. You can use it in our SAAS or deploy it anywhere.
Learn how to install it with Docker, Kubernetes, Elestio or other options on our website.
Penpot Enterprise
Penpot Enterprise is our paid plan for organizations that need to scale their design work across multiple teams with advanced governance, security, and administration. Manage teams and access from a centralized Admin Console, configure advanced permissions, and connect your identity provider through SSO. Available for cloud and self-hosted environments, it combines enterprise controls with Penpot’s open-source foundation and open standards.
