Getting started · Alpha
There's nothing to install
Tostada runs in your browser at app.tostada-ui.app. Sign up free — no terminal, no download, no setup. This page used to describe an npx install; that distribution has been retired.
Sign up
An account is free to start. Your library, its documentation site and the audits behind it live in one place, and your teammates can be part of it.
Shape your system
Tokens, layout principles, component rules — every change previewed live on real components as you make it.
Hand it to your developers
Export a committable design/ bundle: tokens.css, a Tailwind theme, design-system.json, and an AGENTS.md your AI coding agent follows.
Developers: the open format
Everything needed to read what Tostada produces is Apache-2.0 and on npm. Point it at a library file and regenerate your token layer, your theme and your whole documentation site — offline, on a machine that has never heard of us.
npm i @tostada-ui/format
Then npx tostada docs or npx tostada export, against your tostada.json.
Audit a codebase first
Runs on your machine and never executes your code. Your code stays put — only the finished report is sent, to a one-time link you claim.
