About the project

Open-source, clean-room reimplementation of Adobe Photoshop written entirely in Rust, featuring layers, masks, adjustment layers, vector shapes, type and real PSD files.

Useful for
  • Replace Photoshop in an offline workflow to edit and save layered PSD files.
  • Build an image-editing pipeline driven via CLI, JSON control channel or MCP server.
  • Open and inspect Photoshop documents without installing Adobe software.

3.3 Early signal Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 10, 2026, 13:46 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

02550October 6, 2026October 10, 2026

Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-10 (UTC), 12:54–13:37: 120 → 121 stars (+1). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +10 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • The repository is 4 days old and already has 121 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
  • About 6 forks a day — people are taking the code.

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
