About

LightCraft is an open-source photo library and RAW editor for photographers who want to organize and develop images locally. It imports photos into albums and folders and supports ratings, flags, metadata search, sorting and duplicate detection. Non-destructive tools cover exposure, tone and color adjustments, crop and geometry, presets, black-and-white conversion, and local masks. It reads multiple camera RAW and common image formats and exports JPEG, PNG, TIFF, WebP and DNG. Users can compare edits, synchronize settings across selected photos, and create contact sheets. LightCraft runs on macOS, Windows and Linux; a WebAssembly build can be self-hosted. A command-line interface, JSON control channel and MCP server support automation. The library is stored locally, without an account or cloud service.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It has some features that were in Picasa. You can upload to Google Photos. Facial recognition is okay - not great. Map view is nice.
  • Everything, as a beginner I downloaded the free version, to see if it was suitable for my needs. I scanned 125 photos and then set about sorting them, I was amazed how easy it was to tag etc and the Ai facial recognition only required me to tag a face a few times for it to sort out all the photos of that face aged 6 to 21 very impressive. I have decided I will pay for the pro version and am excited at the prospect of learning as I go and achieving my goal. Still several thousand photos to go but it no longer feels such a daunting task. I would highly recommend anyone to trial this application and I am convinced you will be very happy.

Cons

  • It's slow... and crashes. It messes up tags with the ";".
  • If I had to be very picky, I would ask the developers to expand the scope of the duplicate photo system it is good but could be tweaked to make it superb.
