Curve.app

Curve App is a vector drawing desktop application written in JavaScript and based on Electron. It is mostly an Electron wrapper over the Curve vector drawing library.

Note: at this point it is a toy (MVP!) intended to serve as a real-ish example of an Electron app. It has all the trimmings most apps will need:

• Window management
• File management (open, save, save as, dealing with modified files)
• Menus
• Keyboard shortcuts
• Passing command line parameters from the browser process to the renderer process

Features

• Open and save SVG files
• Create Paths (pen tool)
• Create Rectangles (rectangle tool)
• Create Ellipses (ellipse tool)
• Edit object shapes (rectangles, ellipses, paths: nodes and their handles)
• Edit object fill color

TODO

• Undo
• Zoom
• Multi-select
• Better handle management on nodes (break, join, pull)
• Legit color picker that allows alpha
• The editing of more parameters (more than just fill!)
• Layer management
• Like everything else a legit vector drawing app has...
