Description

LightCraft serves as an open-source library and RAW editor tailored for photographers seeking to manage and enhance their images on a local level. The software allows users to organize their photos into albums and folders while providing features for ratings, flags, metadata searching, sorting, and detecting duplicates. It includes non-destructive editing tools that facilitate exposure, tone and color adjustments, cropping, geometry changes, applying presets, converting to black and white, and utilizing local masks. Supporting a wide range of camera RAW formats and standard image types, it enables exports in JPEG, PNG, TIFF, WebP, and DNG formats. Users can easily compare edits, synchronize settings across multiple selected photos, and design contact sheets for their work. LightCraft is compatible with macOS, Windows, and Linux systems, and it also offers a self-hosted WebAssembly build. Additionally, it features a command-line interface, a JSON control channel, and an MCP server for enhanced automation capabilities. Notably, all the library's data is stored locally, eliminating the need for user accounts or cloud services, thus ensuring complete data privacy and control.

Description

A web-based digital image organizer that prioritizes your privacy by enabling you to scan local files without the need to upload personal photos to a cloud service, thus preventing large corporations from having access to your private images. This tool ensures non-destructive editing, meaning your original files remain untouched unless you decide to empty the trash. It supports a wide array of photo formats including JPG, PNG, TIF, WebP, and HEIC/HEIF, and can also read various raw formats from numerous camera brands, although this feature is exclusive to Mac and Linux users. You can easily navigate through your photo library by date, and enjoy detailed views with zoom functionality. Additionally, it allows you to view EXIF data, apply tags, mark favorites, and perform basic editing tasks such as rotating, tilting, cropping, or deleting images, making it a comprehensive solution for your photo management needs. With these features combined, it offers an efficient way to organize and maintain your photo collection while safeguarding your personal information.
