Shipped: Open Source Photoshop with Generative AI

LayerShop is a free, open-source image editor for Windows: Photoshop-style layers, masks and tools, with generative AI built in. Select an area, describe the change, and the result lands on its own masked layer.

It's a fork of PhotoCraft (an open-source editor in Rust by the ArtCraft team). I added the AI side, with ComfyUI running in the background, so you get local models like Qwen Image and MiniMax H3 (or cloud ones with your own API key) without ever touching a node graph.

Who uses it: people who want AI edits on their own PC, and ComfyUI users who want a proper editor on top of it.

The launch post on r/comfyui got 22K views and 66 comments in its first days.
