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

    Description:
    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.
