About Knapsack
Knapsack is an enterprise digital production platform that unites design, code, and context into a single living system of record. It connects design tokens, components, documentation, and multiple code frameworks so designers and engineers can ship production-ready UI faster across large organizations.

- Supports multiple front-end frameworks (React, Vue, Angular, Web Components, Twig, Handlebars) in one workspace
- Strong enterprise governance: SSO via SAML/OIDC, granular permissions, and audit-friendly workflows
- Tight Figma integration keeps design assets and tokens in sync with production code
- Used by Fortune 500 customers with documented efficiency gains and ROI from design system consolidation
