Design websites offline

Splitleaf runs on your device, not in a browser tab. Your site is a folder on your disk. Edit design and content with no connection, and publish when you are back online.

A working copy that stays on your machine

Real desktop editing

Native desktop app, not a web wrapper.

Linked asset folders

Browse & use external asset folders (Google Drive, Dropbox, …).

Local persistence

Every change instantly saved to disk, never lose progress.

Offline access

Editing works perfectly fine offline, work on planes or in places with spotty connection

Cloud-only editors make your workday fragile

If the product only exists in someone else's browser session, an outage or a blocked network stops marketing cold. A desktop or offline app is the most requested feature on Webflow's public wishlist, with 5,412 votes since December 2016. Webflow's reply: the product "is essentially a browser within a browser".

Files already live on your machines

Brand kits, product shots, and drafts already sit in local folders and drive mirrors. A useful editor meets those files where they are.

Control starts with a working copy

Local files are easier to back up, review, and hand off. They also make GDPR and procurement conversations narrower, because the CMS is not the only copy of the truth.

Desktop-first, connect when it matters

Desktop-first by design

Forget laggy and slow browser apps, Splitleaf is built to use the performance of your computer.

Edit offline

When your traveling with spotty connection or dont want to connect to a free wifi.

Publish later

Publishing all your offline work when you are ready, or send it for review.

Common questions

Is Splitleaf fully offline forever?
Design and content work need no connection. Publishing, sign-in and team sync need a network. The license check has a 90-day offline grace period.
Do my files upload to Splitleaf while I edit?
Site content lives in your folder and repo in GitHub, we never see your files.
Can several people edit while mostly offline?
Each person works in a local copy of the site. Collaborative work gets reconciled when you publish.
Why does offline design matter for agencies and EU teams?
Agencies keep client work portable. EU teams keep working copies inside environments they already control.
Does the AI agent work offline?
Not yet. The designer, the CMS and your content all work with no connection. The agent needs a network because it calls the model provider you connected. Local models will close that last gap.

Keep the working copy on your desk.

Design and edit locally, connect only when you're ready to publish.
