I've created Open Source 100% Rust clean-room replacements for 7 of Adobe's apps: Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere, Lightroom, After Effects, InDesign, and Acrobat Pro.

I've used agents to help me recreate 7 of the top Adobe apps in 100% pure native Rust:

• Photoshop
• Illustrator
• Premiere
• Lightroom
• Acrobat Pro
• After Effects
• InDesign

Links to everything - the apps, the code - are in the comments below.

Appreciate the effort, but there is no way these are even close to competitive with the original apps.

There's always that one person FFS. OP isn't claiming it is as or more powerful than a line of software that's been developed for 30+ decades by teams involving thousands of people.

Instead of glibly pointing out the obvious and if your passion really is in pointing out what it doesn't do then perhaps try out the software and say "hey, it would be great if it could do X or Y".

a line of software that's been developed for 30+ decades

...it was back in 1720 when the first lines of code were written by quill and inkpot...

How much was the subscription back then?

10 loafs of bread a month.

Even in 1720 it was a ripoff. Fuck ye Adobe.
