• [$] An early look at the Graphite 2D graphics editor

    From LWN.net@86:200/23 to All on Sat Dec 27 06:40:08 2025

    Graphite is an effort to unify
    illustration, raster editing, desktop publishing, and animation in one browser-based application. The project has been in development since
    2020 and announced its first alpha release in 2022. According to creator Keavon Chambers, the project's mission is to become
    "the 2D counterpart to Blender", by bringing a node-based,
    non-destructive workflow to 2D graphics. The project, currently still in
    alpha, is a long way from complete; but it is worth testing for anyone
    involved with open-source-graphics production. Current
    builds, from September 2025, include vector-illustration tools, a
    node-based compositor, and early brush tooling, with broader pixel-based-
    and photo-editing work still in progress.
