openv0 is a generative UI component framework

It allows you to AI generate and iterate on UI components, with live preview.

• openv0 makes use of open source component libraries and icons to build a library of assets for the generative pipeline.
• openv0 is highly modular, and structured for elaborate generative processes
• Component generation is a multipass pipeline - where every pass is a fully independent plugin
