Introduction

LightCraft is a free, open-source photo library and color-grading app, written from scratch in Rust, delivering a complete "library + raw develop" workflow. Its motto says it all: "your photos, your pixels, your machine" — everything runs on your own computer.
What it lets you do:
- Manage thousands of photos: build a library, cull, rate, tag, organize into albums and batch-process a whole professional selection workflow locally.
- Grade and develop raw files in a few clicks: exposure, contrast, white balance, tone curve, cinematic color grading, presets & profiles, and an HSL color mixer to give flat raw files real character.
- Effortless local edits: point-and-shoot masking and one-click subject/sky selection make pro-level local adjustments approachable.
Product highlights:
- Native, pure Rust, local-first: no cloud dependency; your photos never need to be uploaded.
- End-to-end agent-drivable over MCP, from import to finished photo — great for batch pipelines.
Team & tech: built by the community ArtCraft team (GitHub user storytold, site getartcraft.com); the Craft series is 100% pure Rust with an egui UI and wgpu rendering, and is an independent open-source work unaffiliated with any third-party commercial software.
Platforms: macOS, Windows, Linux, and a browser (WebAssembly) build. Young and moving fast.
