I gave OpenPencil a look mainly through the lens of getting started, since that's usually where design tools lose me. The onboarding was reasonably clear about the prompt-to-canvas flow, though the concurrent agent teams concept needed more explanation than the docs currently give it. The design as code export is a genuinely useful idea if the underlying documentation catches up to it. Promising, but needs clearer docs.
