Install extensions to make PixiEditor truly yours.
We believe that a strong community is what makes software great and ensures its longevity.
And this is what the core of PixiEditor 2.0 is all about, extensions made by users, for users.
Version 2.0 will not be limited to any specific type of graphics, but will be a universal tool for all of them.
Installing and browsing extensions will be as easy as a single click.
Animations
A feature that was the most wanted. Finally here.
You'll be able to create any kind of animations. From simple frame-by-frame, to complex keyframe animations.
As extensible, as everything else.
Introducing Layer Nodes, our take on procedural art.
That's right, if you like to play around and connect some nodes, you'll find yourself at home.
Layer nodes will allow you to create procedural art, animations, vfx and whatever your imagination can come up with.
Infinite canvas mode
No more restrictions - create sprite atlases, artboards and use the canvas as a sandbox.
Why stop at sandbox, a whole desert!
Desert is kinda empty though, your canvas won't be, maybe forest then? There are a lot of things there, like frogs and trees.
Anyway, you get the point.
FAQ
Will PixiEditor 2.0 be a different product than PixiEditor?
No, PixiEditor 2.0 will be a free major update for PixiEditor.
PixiEditor 1.0 is a pixel art focused editor, will version 2.0 lose pixel art tooling?
Not at all! New update will include all tooling that was available in previous versions. You'll be able to choose pixel-art tooling and just enjoy new features.
Besides built-in pixel art tools, you'll be able to install new community-made extensions that will enhance your pixel-art drawing experience. We believe that making PixiEditor more universal in the new update will broaden the range of users who use it. This, in turn, might create a positive feedback loop: more users -> more tooling extensions -> more users.

What will be the release date?
We don't have a specific date yet. However, we plan to release a few beta versions in the upcoming months, with different sets of features.
We'll be sending out emails to everyone who joined the waitlist, when new beta versions are released, so sign in to be as early as possible!
Please note, that beta might not be published for all platforms at once. At first, we aim to deliver PixiEditor 2.0 for Windows and Linux. MacOS build might be delayed, because we currently don't have any MacOS device and we expect porting process to take more time than Windows and Linux.

I am a developer and I want to create an extension for PixiEditor 2.0, how and when can I do that?
Our extensions API is still very much a work-in-progress and might drastically change each day. However, during beta releases, we'll create proper docs and notify you with resources you need. We want to introduce the API to you as soon as possible, so you can start creating awesome things before official 2.0 release.
