Architecture Blueprint Snapshot

Rust + WGPU + WebAssembly

Unlike legacy software suites built on 30-year-old codebases or modern web wrappers that bloat system memory through Electron, the ArtCraft suite leverages compiled native Rust rendering pipelines with direct Metal, Vulkan, and DirectX 12 hardware bridges.

01. Zero Electron

Direct hardware windowing via Winit and GPU render targets via WGPU. Minimal idle RAM consumption.

02. Local-First Assets

Your creative assets remain exclusively on your disk. No forced cloud syncing or AI training on your private files.

03. MCP AI Interop

Model Context Protocol (MCP) server endpoints allow local AI agents to automate drafting and vector generation.
