Akira: The Linux Design Tool We’ve Always Wanted?
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
Let’s make it clear, I am not a professional designer – but I’ve used certain tools on Windows (like Photoshop, Illustrator, etc.) and [Figma][1] (which is a browser-based interface design tool). I’m sure there are a lot more design tools available for Mac and Windows.
|
||||
|
||||
Even on Linux, there is a limited number of dedicated [graphic design tools][2]. A few of these tools like [GIMP][3] and [Inkscape][4] are used by professionals as well. But most of them are not considered professional grade, unfortunately.
|
||||
|
||||
Even if there are a couple more solutions – I’ve never come across a native Linux application that could replace [Sketch][5], Figma, or Adobe **** XD. Any professional designer would agree to that, isn’t it?
|
||||
|
||||
### Is Akira going to replace Sketch, Figma, and Adobe XD on Linux?
|
||||
|
||||
Well, in order to develop something that would replace those awesome proprietary tools – [Alessandro Castellani][6] – came up with a [Kickstarter campaign][7] by teaming up with a couple of experienced developers –
|
||||
[Alberto Fanjul][8], [Bilal Elmoussaoui][9], and [Felipe Escoto][10].
|
||||
|
||||
So, yes, Akira is still pretty much just an idea- with a working prototype of its interface (as I observed in their [live stream session][11] via Kickstarter recently).
|
||||
|
||||
### If it does not exist, why the Kickstarter campaign?
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
The aim of the Kickstarter campaign is to gather funds in order to hire the developers and take a few months off to dedicate their time in order to make Akira possible.
|
||||
|
||||
Nonetheless, if you want to support the project, you should know some details, right?
|
||||
|
||||
Fret not, we asked a couple of questions in their livestream session – let’s get into it…
|
||||
|
||||
### Akira: A few more details

|
||||
|
||||
As the Kickstarter campaign describes:
|
||||
|
||||
> The main purpose of Akira is to offer a fast and intuitive tool to **create Web and Mobile interfaces** , more like **Sketch** , **Figma** , or **Adobe XD** , with a completely native experience for Linux.
|
||||
|
||||
They’ve also written a detailed description as to how the tool will be different from Inkscape, Glade, or QML Editor. Of course, if you want all the technical details, [Kickstarter][7] is the way to go. But, before that, let’s take a look at what they had to say when I asked some questions about Akira.
|
||||
|
||||
Q: If you consider your project – similar to what Figma offers – why should one consider installing Akira instead of using the web-based tool? Is it just going to be a clone of those tools – offering a native Linux experience or is there something really interesting to encourage users to switch (except being an open source solution)?
|
||||
|
||||
**Akira:** A native experience on Linux is always better and fast in comparison to a web-based electron app. Also, the hardware configuration matters if you choose to utilize Figma – but Akira will be light on system resource and you will still be able to do similar stuff without needing to go online.
|
||||
|
||||
Q: Let’s assume that it becomes the open source solution that Linux users have been waiting for (with similar features offered by proprietary tools). What are your plans to sustain it? Do you plan to introduce any pricing plans – or rely on donations?
|
||||
|
||||
**Akira** : The project will mostly rely on Donations (something like [Krita Foundation][14] could be an idea). But, there will be no “pro” pricing plans – it will be available for free and it will be an open source project.
|
||||
|
||||
So, with the response I got, it definitely seems to be something promising that we should probably support.
|
||||
|
||||
### Wrapping Up
|
||||
|
||||
What do you think about Akira? Is it just going to remain a concept? Or do you hope to see it in action?
|
||||

||||
Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

Akira：我们一直想要的 Linux 设计工具？
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
先说一下，我不是一个专业的设计师 - 但我在 Windows 上使用了某些工具（如 Photoshop、Illustrator 等）和 [Figma] [1]（这是一个基于浏览器的界面设计工具）。我相信 Mac 和 Windows 上还有更多的设计工具。
|
||||
|
||||
即使在 Linux 上，也只有有限的专用[图形设计工具][2]。其中一些工具如 [GIMP][3] 和 [Inkscape][4] 也被专业人士使用。但不幸的是，它们中的大多数都不被视为专业级。
|
||||
|
||||
即使有更多解决方案 - 我也从未遇到过可以取代 [Sketch][5]、Figma 或 Adobe XD 的原生 Linux 应用。任何专业设计师都同意这点，不是吗？
|
||||
|
||||
### Akira 是否会在 Linux 上取代 Sketch、Figma 和 Adobe XD？
|
||||
|
||||
所以，为了开发一些能够取代那些专有工具的应用 - [Alessandro Castellani][6] 发起了一个 [Kickstarter 活动][7]，并与几位经验丰富的开发人员 [Alberto Fanjul][8]、[Bilal Elmoussaoui][9] 和 [Felipe Escoto][10] 组队合作。
|
||||
|
||||
是的，Akira 仍然只是一个想法，只有一个界面原型（正如我最近在 Kickstarter 的[直播流][11]中看到的那样）。
|
||||
|
||||
### 如果它还没有，为什么会发起 Kickstarter 活动？
|
||||
|
||||
![][12]
|
||||
|
||||
Kickstarter 活动的目的是收集资金，以便雇用开发人员，并花几个月的时间开发，以使 Akira 成为可能。
|
||||
|
||||
尽管如此，如果你想支持这个项目，你应该知道一些细节，对吧？
|
||||
|
||||
不用担心，我们在他们的直播中问了几个问题 - 让我们看下
|
||||
|
||||
### Akira：更多细节
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
如 Kickstarter 活动描述的那样：
|
||||
|
||||
> Akira 的主要目的是提供一个快速而直观的工具来**创建 Web 和移动界面**，更像是 **Sketch**、**Figma** 或 **Adobe XD**，并且是 Linux 原生体验。
|
||||
|
||||
他们还详细描述了该工具与 Inkscape、Glade 或 QML Editor 的不同之处。当然，如果你想要所有的技术细节，请查看 [Kickstarter][7]。但是，在此之前，让我们看一看当我询问有关 Akira 的一些问题时他们说了些什么。
|
||||
|
||||
问：如果你认为你的项目类似于 Figma - 人们为什么要考虑安装 Akira 而不是使用基于网络的工具？它是否只是这些工具的克隆 - 提供原生 Linux 体验，还是有一些非常有趣的东西可以鼓励用户切换（除了是开源解决方案之外）？
|
||||
|
||||
** Akira：** 与基于网络的 electron 应用相比，Linux 原生体验总是更好、更快。此外，如果你选择使用 Figma，硬件配置也很重要 - 但 Akira 将会占用很少的系统资源，并且你可以在不需要上网的情况下完成类似工作。
|
||||
|
||||
问：假设它成为了 Linux用户一直在等待的开源方案（拥有专有工具的类似功能）。你有什么维护计划？你是否计划引入定价 - 或依赖捐赠？
|
||||
|
||||
**Akira：**该项目主要依靠捐赠（类似于 [Krita 基金会][14] 这样的想法）。但是，不会有“专业版”计划 - 它将免费提供，它将是一个开源项目。
|
||||
|
||||
根据我得到的回答，它看起来似乎很有希望，我们应该支持。
|
||||
|
||||
### 总结
|
||||
|
||||
你怎么认为 Akira？它只是一个概念吗？或者你希望看到进展？
|
||||
|
||||
请在下面的评论中告诉我们你的想法。
