About XD
Adobe released Experience Design, later XD, in 2016 to design apps and websites and link their screens into prototypes. In 2023 Adobe stopped adding to it, so many teams hold XD files with fewer ways to open them.
An XD file is a ZIP: a manifest of its artboards, a JSON file of each artboard's layers, the components, gradients and masks they share, the pictures they show, and a picture of an artboard.
Filepeek draws every artboard from the file itself, sharp at any zoom, with the components on the pasteboard around them: shapes, paths, text in the fonts it names or fonts like them, pictures, gradients, shadows, blurs and masks. Browse the layers, search the text, inspect any layer for its size, colors, fonts and CSS, and save artboards as PNG or JPEG, a layer as SVG or the canvas as PDF.

Questions
How do I open an XD file without Adobe XD?
Drop it on this page or choose Peek an XD. Its preview shows at once, then every artboard is drawn, with no Adobe account and nothing to install.
Why does some text look a little different?
XD sets text in the fonts the designer had. Filepeek uses the ones your device has, or a font like it when it lacks one, keeping the lines where XD broke them.
Can I get a layer's CSS?
Yes. Choose Inspect and click a layer to see its size, position, colors, fonts and effects, with CSS to copy.
Does it play XD's prototypes?
No. It shows the artboards and their layers, not the links and transitions between them.
