Holy shit. Someone has decompiled the Adobe suite, rebuilt it in Rust and released it as open source.
Either all software is dead or the US copyright laws are about to receive an update.

the open source rebuilds that were made in days are buggy and a bit broken at present.
I think it could be both. They decompiled it, likely with the help of an llm, and then vibe coded a reimplementation in rust. They claim ‘clean-room reimplementation’ on github, but I’m not so sure this would be considered clean room. I don’t know, tho, let’s wait for the lawyers and judges to say.
Doesn’t look like a decomp, but a vibecoded clone. A decomp would get sued into oblivion anyway.
I highly doubt this will ever replace the originals, but Adobe would deserve that.
