Open-Source Rust Alternatives to Adobe Apps
ArtCraft has launched a suite of open-source tools designed to provide artists with granular control over visual composition without relying on subscription-based services. The platform offers features such as 3D compositing, character posing, and background removal, allowing users to build scenes with precise geometric and layered accuracy. By hosting its code on GitHub and offering both desktop and web-based access, ArtCraft aims to eliminate middlemen and ensure users retain permanent ownership of their creative work.
