RapidRAW is een modern, krachtig opensourcealternatief voor Adobe Lightroom. Het levert een eenvoudige en mooie bewerkingservaring in een lichtgewicht pakket van ongeveer 20MB voor Windows, macOS en Linux. Het wordt ontwikkeld door een Zwitser, die hier juli 2025 mee is begonnen als een persoonlijke uitdaging met als doel om een krachtig programma te creëren voor zijn eigen fotografieworkflow. RapidRAW is gebouwd met een Rust-backend en een React/TypeScript-frontend, verpakt met Tauri om hem licht te houden. Versie 1.6.1 is uitgekomen en hier zijn de volgende veranderingen en verbeteringen in aangebracht:
RapidRAW v1.6.1 - Customizable Workspace, Unified Library Editing & More!Don't let the minor version bump fool you. RapidRAW v1.6.1 brings a massive overhaul to your editing workflow. While it might seem on the surface like it contains "just" one major new feature, this update is actually a fundamental transformation in how you interact with the app. I have completely overhauled the user interface to give you total freedom over your editing environment, alongside some crucial performance improvements and color accuracy fixes.
Fully Customizable WorkspacePreviously, RapidRAW had a very specific, rigid interface: your sources and folders were always on the left, and your adjustment panels were always on the right. Now, the workspace is fully customizable. If you aren't happy with the default panel arrangement, you can change it entirely. By simply grabbing the panel icon in the panel tab switcher, you can drag and drop panels around, reorder them, and create your own custom split views. You can finally build a layout that fits your exact workflow perfectly.
Unified Library & Edit ViewsWhile the Library and Edit views are still technically separate, the strict wall between them is gone. You can now use all the tools from the edit view directly inside the library view! This means your beloved adjustment panels stay open all the time now. You can seamlessly tweak sliders and continue editing an image using the right-side controls without ever having to leave your library grid.
Core Improvements
- Export Stability & Memory Optimization: Exports now consume significantly less VRAM, preventing out-of-memory crashes and improving stability on lower-end systems during heavy processing.
- Display Color Accuracy: Resolved an issue that caused subtle color shifts on P3 wide-gamut displays (particularly noticeable on Apple Displays).
- Image-Based LUTs & Batch Presets: Added full support for image-based LUTs (
.png,.jpg,.jpeg,.tiff) alongside the ability to batch-import multiple presets simultaneously.- WGPU Renderer Upgrades: Enabled the White Balance color picker tool when running the application with the WGPU renderer.
- File Path Shortcut: Added the
Cmd/Ctrl+Lkeyboard shortcut to instantly copy the file path of the currently selected image to the clipboard.- Expanded Localization: Added Catalan language support.
- Updated Dependencies: Upgraded the underlying rawler backend and Lensfun database
