- Restoring several previous features that were removed during refactors in the past year to a fully working state including Imaginate, snapping, folder bounding boxes, transform pivots, and vector shape boolean operations
- Deploying GPU-based rendering by default and moving from an experimental to a production-ready hardware-accelerated compositing system using [Vello](https://github.com/linebender/vello) to unify the currently separate raster and vector pipelines
- Shipping desktop apps for Windows, Mac, and Linux by integrating [Tauri](https://tauri.app/) and bundling built-in AI models to run Imaginate and other upcoming features directly on user hardware

- Designing a new vector graphics data format suitable for advanced procedural editing and rendering, plus the associated procedural workflow features
- Remaking the Brush tool with the GPU-accelerated pipeline and the adaptive resolution system so digital painting in Graphite becomes practical
- Implementing the Mask Mode feature for Magic Wand tool marquee selections, which will dramatically improve Graphite's utility as a raster graphics editor

Starting out with our most in-demand request: a desktop app. This has been on our roadmap from the start but only recently it's begun making sense putting it at the front of the roadmap priorities. We hoped to complete it by the end of 2024, but that wasn't in the cards due to developer availability and the specialized skills needed to complete the task.
Now to get technical, the lazy option exists: chucking the whole web app in an unaltered Electron wrapper, but this is a technological dead end that I believe offers no value compared to a PWA. The value comes from offering an actual native app where the editor Rust code and GPU-accelerated rendering runs on a user's Windows, Mac, or Linux machine without browser overhead. <a href="https://tauri.app/" target="_blank">Tauri</a> provides this capability, but our use case presents some unsupported challenges that our team has to overcome— individually on each platform. The natively rendered viewport content must be composited with the rest of the Tauri window's editor GUI. When investigating this earlier in the year, this isn't properly supported and we will have to develop solutions to fix Tauri's use of the OS platform APIs. If you have experience with native development on Windows, Mac, and/or Linux, please get involved to speed up this effort! With our current resources, I am anticipating this will be ready for release around spring.

The value comes from offering an actual native app where the editor Rust code and GPU-accelerated rendering runs on a user's Windows, Mac, or Linux machine without browser overhead. Our use case of combining the web-rendered editor interface with the user's native-rendered artwork presents several unique challenges that our team has to overcome— individually on each platform.
