storytold/lightcraft
An open-source, clean-room reimplementation of Adobe Lightroom in pure Rust.
LightCraft is an open-source photo library and raw editor written in pure Rust, aiming to be a clean-room reimplementation of Adobe Lightroom. It offers non-destructive editing through a scene-referred, wide-gamut, 32-bit float pipeline, with exposure, color, masking, presets, and library tools. It runs natively on macOS, Windows, and Linux, in the browser via WebAssembly, and can be driven by AI agents over MCP.
Why now: It's trending as one of the most-starred new repositories, generating attention for its ambitious Lightroom alternative in Rust, its MCP/agent support, and its very young, fast-moving status.
Who it is for: Photographers who want a free, open-source Lightroom alternative, plus Rust developers and AI-agent enthusiasts interested in programmable photo editing.
