+
+Graphite ([website][graphite-website], [GitHub][graphite-repo],
+[Discord][graphite-discord], [Twitter][graphite-twitter]) is a free,
+in-development raster and vector 2D graphics editor that will be based around a
+Rust-powered node graph compositing engine.
+
+July's [sprint][graphite-sprint-17] focused on editor-centric
+refactors upgrading stopgap measures to more robust systems.
+
+- Making a splash: The default document is replaced by a welcome splash screen
+following a refactor allowing for zero open documents.
+- Modifying for Macs: Input handling supports the nonstandard modifier keys on
+Mac keyboards, including labels in the UI.
+- Setting a high bar: The menu bar cleans up actions and supports new ones like
+*File* > *Import*. Displayed hotkeys are based on the actual key mapping
+source, varying by OS.
+- Keeping organized: The editor codebase is restructured to cut away technical
+debt and create consistency for new contributors and better docs going forward.
+
+Open the [Graphite editor][graphite-live-demo] in your browser to give it a try
+and share your creations with #MadeWithGraphite on Twitter.
