3 | 3 | # Powerful 2D vector and raster editing. Procedural and nondestructive. |
4 | 4 |
|
5 | 5 | Graphite is a digital content creation software package for 2D graphics, merging traditional tool-based interactive editing workflows with a powerful node-based approach to procedural, non-destructive editing and compositing. The application strives to be the most user-friendly and versatile tool for vector and raster illustration, graphic design, photo editing, procedural texturing, data-driven visualization, and technical art. |

7 | 7 | While the project is still in early development, implementation progress has been moving forward at a swift pace. The Graphite Alpha release is launching soon and focuses on vector art for SVG creation. The next major milestone will introduce a nondestructive backend for vector graphics with a powerful node graph system. Later releases will provide better vector rendering capabilities and then resolution-agnostic raster editing and compositing. |

22 | 21 |
|
23 | 22 | Graphite is an open source, cross-platform digital content creation desktop and web application for 2D graphics editing, photo processing, vector art, digital painting, illustration, data visualization, compositing, and more. Inspired by the open source success of Blender in the 3D domain, it aims to bring 2D content creation to new heights with efficient workflows influenced by Photoshop/Gimp and Illustrator/Inkscape and backed by a powerful node-based, nondestructive approach proven by Houdini and Substance. |
