What it does

An editorial selection.

Clean-room, pure-Rust reimplementation of Photoshop: layers, masks, adjustment layers, type, vectors and real PSD files.

Why it is listed

Part of the ArtCraft suite (FilmCraft, LightCraft, VectorCraft, WordCraft, GridCraft, CADCraft). Only 26 days old, so its velocity number isn't stable yet.

GitHub describes it as: PhotoCraft: An open-source, photo editor written by scratch in pure Rust
