Show HN: Git for Designers

Opacity, a new platform for software teams, announced its early access program, claiming to eliminate the gap between design and code by making the canvas the source of truth, with features for branching, pull requests, diffing, and merging directly on the canvas, plus AI that understands designs. The platform aims to let designers version and publish code components directly from the canvas, installable into any existing codebase.

Build stable software at scale, with the canvas as the source of truth #

Design, version, and publish code components directly from the canvas #

Install your components into any existing codebase #

Your single source of truth is now the canvas #

For thirty years, design and code have been separate worlds #

That ends today! #

No more separation. No more translation. Design IS code. #

Not just cursors on a screen #
