This is currently very actively in development. So it's not ready yet for a general audience. But it is a an interesting look at the future. ## My experience I did try the development version on Steam in July 2026. So keep in mind I only exercised some features and did not have a long drawing session. Some quick things I noticed: * Very fast and responsive. * If you didn't know it was a vector app, you might not realize it from casual use. This is a compliment! * I was very happy with its vector erasing capabilities * The eraser produces good results compared to Clip Studio Paint's vector eraser which I am very used to. * The eraser shows a live preview of what it is going to erase before it does. This allows you to cancel a stroke before committing to it. I've never seen such a feature before in painting app. Features I did not try (yet): * Vector bucket fill * Exploring the brush engine ## Resources * [ACM SIGGRRAPH - Ciallo: The next-generation vector paint program](https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3587421.3595418) - August 2023-08-07 * Research paper: * GitHub page:
