Based on upstream documentation. These steps have not been independently tested in the desktop app; menu labels and behavior may differ by release.
Step by step
What makes it worth trying
The project offers a native Rust editor, open-source code, layered editing and automation interfaces. You can try the official web build here before choosing a desktop package.
Who should test a copy
Learners, open-source users and automation experimenters can explore a small task with reversible edits. Read the tutorial for that specific workflow and keep the input unchanged.
Who needs extra validation
Production users depending on complex typography, external plug-ins or exact layered exchange should check the upstream gaps and test a representative job. The project remains early alpha.
Run a complete trial
Open a sample, make the required changes, save a new editable file, export the deliverable and reopen it in the receiving application. Website browser tests verify our selected workflows, not every upstream editing feature.

PhotoCraft is in early alpha. Keep original files and test a copy before relying on it for important work.
