Friends of #opensource digital art creation: meet us this weekend at the San Francisco Bay Area #MakerFaire and explore a sneak peek at some of the most-requested new additions we have been cooking up. And as always, grab yourself some stickers.
Open source 2D graphics at its best: Let's explore Graphite's largest update so far! Over 300 changes, new rendering possibilities, a desktop app progress preview, and so many more improvements to catch up on:

Hot on the heels of 15k⭐ less than a month ago, the Graphite #opensource project just reached 20k #GitHub stars. Thanks to all who have joined our community in recent weeks and spread the excitement for #procedural #art and #graphicdesign.

And that's a wrap! If you were one of our hundreds of visitors who came to the Graphite booth over the weekend at #OpenSauce, thank you for your part in making the show a resounding success. We look forward to seeing you again next year.

Day 1 is done! We'll continue day 2, here at #OpenSauce in San Mateo, CA. Come see us and explore #procedural #graphicdesign and #motiongraphics that is free and #opensource. Thanks to @OpenSauceLive for the incredible event thus far — #maker culture is thriving here!
Today is the day! #OpenSauce is here for #opensource— find us in Hall B alongside the entrance from the big lawn area. Try Graphite's #graphicdesign and #motiongraphics tools to control the LEDs light boards at our booth. And doodle on them, too! See you there.
Meet us this weekend at #OpenSauce in San Mateo, California. Booth number N4-5 in Hall B, on the wall adjacent to the big lawn area. Come grab some swag!
It's that time again... for more #procedural #mathart! Graphite combines a standard vector graphics editor with #creativecoding and #motiondesign. #MadeWithGraphite
As with all the daily posts, you can play with this yourself and tweak the node graph to make it even cooler. Download the file from the Graphite Discord (see graphite.rs for the invite link).
Fiddle with a few vector #geometrynodes and you've got yourself some interactive #mathart.
As with all these #generativeart posts, the file is posted in the Graphite Discord (link on website) so you can play with this yourself. #MadeWithGraphite
Not to rain on your parade 🌧️, but your 2D graphics editing application isn't truly nondestructive if you can't *draw* clouds in it. You might say Graphite is a dark cloud on the horizon for legacy design apps...
#MadeWithGraphite #opensource #graphicdesign #procedural #geometrynodes #generativeart
Damn. has to be among the coolest graphics apps out there, and still in alpha.
Innovative, slick, and open source. 🫶

It's tiling time! (You get it? Tilings + time = animated tilings.)
It's node-based #creativecoding / #proceduralart / #generativeart / #motiongraphics all in one #opensource creative tool.
Tick tick, this clock keeps time while you edit its geometry! Yep, that's *live* #motiondesign, with the help of the #procedural animation nodes. #MadeInGraphite
How about a splash of color in your #procedural #motiondesign?
Bringing #procedural designs to life and animating with #math!
Developing a #procedural #motiongraphics editor at warp speed like:
Graphite is not your conventional vector graphics tool.
#MadeWithGraphite #opensource #graphicdesign #motiongraphics #motiondesign #digitalart #vectorgraphics #proceduralgeneration #proceduralart #creative #creativecoding #techart #gamedev #generativeart
Graphite is today's #1 trending repository on GitHub, and has just surpassed 15,000⭐!
We have never been more excited to shake up the scene for 2D content creation tools and bring high-quality #opensource design software into the hands of artists— just as #Blender did for 3D.
Open source relies on your generous patronage: graphite.rs/donate/
With your support, Graphite will succeed at transforming the 2D creative landscape and break the stranglehold of subscription software.
Make some noise! Bring it up an octave!
'cause this #procedural vector editor has got some waves to catch 🌊
#MadeWithGraphite
How does Substance Designer + Inkscape sound?
That's pretty much exactly what Graphite is. A new free, open source, procedural vector graphics application.

#gamedev #indiedev
Of course, it wouldn't be a #procedural graphics editor without the obligatory #mandala demo!
The file is posted in our Discord (see graphite.rs for the invite) with the node setup already in place, so you can do some of your own meditative scribbles.
#opensource
Keep time while you make art... with your #art!

Gear up (*buh dum tss*) to see how you can #design a fully nondestructive gear in 45 seconds. Give it a go yourself: dev.graphite.rs (Extra credit: try animating it to spin! File is posted in our Discord with animation included.)

Is this magic? 🪄
Nope! It's #procedural.

New: the Graphite development fund now displays live stats so you can finally track how much support our project is receiving from the #opensource community each month. If you've been waiting decades for a great #foss #graphicdesign tool, you can help! graphite.rs/donate/
Oooh, is that node-based #fractals made of recursive stars? Why yes, yes it is!
This file is posted in the Discord so you can play around with it yourself.

How 'bout designing a dungeon for your next RPG campaign? Nondestructive booleans + rounded corners makes that super easy! #opensource #graphicdesign
The #geometrynodes wizards are gonna freak out when they discover #procedural #vectorgraphics awaiting them in Graphite — #opensource just like #Blender, and even sporting G/R/S transform hotkeys!
(This file is posted in our Discord's general channel to play around with.)

Remember to support #opensource design tools: graphite.rs/donate/
Why settle for ~boring~ typography in your #graphicdesign?
It's way more fun if you mix your #vectorediting with #creativecoding.
Ok, but can *your* vector editor land you a software job interview? #fizzbuzz
You spin me right round, baby, right round.
Like a record, baby, right round, round, round.
Oh wait, wasn't this just a vector editor?
Make math machinery multiply many modular mesmerizing motion mechanizations
Just in case you like to scribble but you're also a racetrack designer. Freehand tool's got your back.
There's definitely a party going on in this star ⭐🌟💫✨🌠.
(Hint hint: maybe you should ⭐ Graphite on GitHub if you're into #proceduralgeneration: github.com/GraphiteEdit...)
Sneak peek: our #animation editor UI design mockup was recently completed to bring keyframe-based #motiongraphics to Graphite. It will be implemented in the near future!
(You can already make math-driven animations with the 'Animation Time' node via the #nodegraph.)

Graphite's latest update enhances its vector & raster editor with new nodes, expanded text controls, and improved tools, including node graph support, path tool upgrades, and style improvements, among others.

Come say hi if you're at #GDC this week, Wednesday–Friday. We'll have stickers to give out. Send us an email (graphite.rs/contact/) or a Discord message and we can plan for a time and place to meet up.
Watch our interview about the tech behind Graphite, our FOSS 2D content creation app for raster and vector artists that delivers a 100% nondestructive creative workflow powered by a node graph language/engine built with Rust 🦀. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUbc...
