LightCraft
An alpha Rust photo library and RAW developer with catalog organization, nondestructive adjustments, masking and image-export workflows.
What can you do with it?
Inspect a native photo-management and development pipeline, including configurable edits and automation through CLI/MCP entry points.
What should you know before using it?
Alpha. Camera calibration is incomplete; unsupported RAW variants may fall back to embedded JPEG previews. Subject/sky selection currently uses classical heuristics, and on-screen HDR, video and some Lightroom Classic modules are missing. The README requires Rust 1.95 for workspace builds although root Cargo metadata still says 1.90. No camera-file fidelity was independently tested.
What is verified here?
Creator: ArtCraft team and contributors; creator announcement by u/ai_art_is_art
Author-reported LLM assistance; human direction and separately authored components remain.
Runtime: Inspected source commit and v0.8.0 release separately. Release assets include native Windows MSI/portable packages, a universal macOS DMG, Linux packages and a self-hosted WebAssembly archive. Windows x64 MSI and macOS DMG returned HTTP 200 to HEAD requests; files were not downloaded or executed. Reviewed application build guidance requires Rust 1.95+. No hosted interactive web demo was established.
