FigCraft: Open-Source Design Tool Launches With AI Agent Support via Rust Native Build

FigCraft, a free open-source design tool written in Rust, launched in October 2026 as a direct alternative to Figma—with a novel distinction: AI agents can control the application natively through 400+ programmatic commands. The project, now available for macOS, Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, and browsers, brings professional design capabilities (frames, auto layout, components, variants, styles, variables, and prototypes) to users who want offline-first, account-free design without telemetry. At 2,558 GitHub stars as of mid-October, FigCraft represents a significant shift in how design tooling can be built and extended.
