history
Project history and usage
VectorCraft is an open-source vector-illustration editor written in Rust. It provides familiar pen and selection tools, path booleans, artboards, typography, live effects, tracing, and open-format import and export in desktop and browser builds.
Project history
VectorCraft was created by the ArtCraft team as an open-source, clean-room vector editor built in Rust. Its design follows familiar professional illustration workflows while implementing drawing tools, path operations, live effects, typography, image tracing, artboards, and rendering in an independent codebase.
Adoption history
VectorCraft is distributed for macOS, Windows, and Linux and also has a browser build, command-line tooling, and native package formats. The supplied package metadata records its availability as the Homebrew cask `vectorcraft`.
How it is used
Users create and edit vector artwork through the desktop interface, exchange work through the native JSON-based format, SVG, and PDF, and export raster images for screens. Developers and automation systems can use the headless CLI, JSON control channel, or MCP server to draw, modify, render, and export documents.
Why package nerds care
VectorCraft is notable as an ambitious native Rust graphics package with an open JSON document format, exact curve booleans, multithreaded rendering, broad import and export support, and first-class automation. Its CLI, JSON control channel, and MCP server make desktop illustration functionality available to scripts and agents as well as GUI users.
