Learn more +about it. +This time around, we have an **in-development 2D graphics editor** called 'Graphite' that is completely free and open-source. It focuses on providing a completely **non-destructive WYSIWYG editing experience**. + +Some of the [best vector graphics editors][1] for Linux out there have a dedicated app to get the job done, but Graphite takes a different approach by being **a browser-only app**. Though, it has plans to provide desktop apps for Linux, Windows, and macOS as per its roadmap. + +Considering it can run on the web, it aims to be a lightweight option while being loaded with all the essential features. + +📋 + +Currently, the app is in its alpha stage of development. So, most of its planned features are in a conceptual state. + +**Suggested Read** 📖 + +![][2] + +### Graphite: Overview ⭐ + +![][3] + +Graphite is a lightweight **Rust-based vector graphics editor** that runs on a web browser. Powered by the **Graphene node graph composition engine,** it provides a good layer-based editor that comes with great accessibility. + +Some of the **most notable features** include: + + * **A sleek, intuitive interface.** + * **Node graph image effects.** + * **AI-assisted art creation.** + * **Real-time collaboration.** + + + +The developers share a video that depicts almost all the above-mentioned features. I was impressed with how straightforward the editing experience looks in the video. + +Seeing that, I tried out my hand at making the following masterpiece using its [development build][4], the **editing experience was similar to what you find on most graphics editors** out there. + +But, I had to look around for the various options manually, as there was **no official documentation** for Graphite. + +I had a chat with the lead developer earlier, and he said that they are on it, and to expect it soon. + +Not to forget, considering it is a lightweight app, we get numerous options that require documentation (which in itself sounds wonderful!). + +![][5] + +Of course, we cannot test out the true essence of what the app aims to be in this state. However, to me, Graphite vector graphics editor sounds **disruptive** , if it manages to achieve what it showcases/promises. + +I would also be curious to see how they add an AI-assisted art creation on a free and open-source app. Who wouldn't want to use that? I know right! 🤩 + +Meanwhile, I recommend you keep an eye on [Graphite's Roadmap][6] and [GitHub repo][7] to know about important development milestones or to join in to contribute. + +### 📥 Get Graphite + +As this is a web app, it can **basically run on any supported web browser** , though I am not certain how the editing experience on a smartphone will be. But for desktops, laptops, and even tablets, this can turn out to be the great option. + +You can head over to the [online editor][8] to access the latest alpha build. If you want to access the latest development build, you can try the [dev version][9] as well. + +[Graphite][8] + +_💬 What do you think about Graphite vector graphics editor? Do you like its concept? Do you think they can pull it off?
