| [Graphite](/) is a new 2D vector graphics editor bringing a modern, nondestructive approach to creative workflows with node-based procedural generation. The project is currently three years into development, with a focus on streamlining the creative process for procedural vector artwork. See the [roadmap](/features#roadmap) for a more in-depth summary of the goals for 2024 and beyond. | ||
