ArtCraft rebuilds Adobe suite in Rust: 13 open-source native apps, free
thisdudelikesAI · x · 2026-10-17
The ArtCraft team is rebuilding the entire Adobe creative suite (and more) from scratch in pure Rust — 100% open source and free, spanning 13 native apps: PhotoCraft (image editing), VectorCraft (vector), FilmCraft (video), LightCraft (photo/RAW), PdfCraft, EffectCraft (motion/VFX), DesignCraft (layout), FigCraft (UI design), WordCraft, SoundCraft, DeckCraft, CADCraft, and GridCraft (spreadsheets).
No Electron, no web views, no cloud — everything runs locally on your own files. Several apps already have macOS/Windows/Linux installers in early alpha; the rest are in development.
