Oooh, #GraphiteEditor has the node graph functionality, which allows you to compose vector objects from the primitives like fill, stroke, transform and live filters in a visual manner!
Node graph interface and filters both give me this nice break-out I needed after LPEs in #Inkscape. Don't get me wrong: that program is THE legend, developers are masters of vectors, and it's purely native Gtk toolkit on which application is built. Right now, their priority is CMYK support, so follow if you're into printing.
I just love to experiment with shiny new software that's #OpenSource, especially one that uses #RustLang and #web to its advantage.
Watch 'em apply circular repeat filter on a mere line to produce this fun sparkle effect. (It is Graphite's official channel, by the way. Wish they were on Mastodon?)
@vintprox thanks for sharing this! Never heard of graphite before, but I starred this and hope to tinker with it soon. I've been trying to tear my partner away from macOS and Adobe for the past three years since I migrated to Linux desktop and this tool could be a gamechanger! Then I'd just need a killer self hosted browser based photo library/DAM.
Speaking of self-hosted libraries, I discovered that, unnfortunately, media powerhouse Jellyfin doesn't has photo albums yet. Would be a great time just casually switching between my favorite movies, music and photos.
I’m really enjoying #zig so far. First-class support for SIMD built right into the language is really cool, but especially because they though it was important enough to put into a language that is deliberately kept small.
