About Patchy

Patchy focuses on accurate PSD compatibility: text, vectors, masks, layer styles and Smart Objects stay editable when you open layered Photoshop files. It also imports Affinity and PDF artwork, supports classic plug-ins and JavaScript scripting, and works with limited palettes without flattening. The browser version runs locally through WebAssembly. No telemetry and no uploads; desktop builds are signed.
