Do you need to work with Sketch files on Windows? Then you need to try Lunacy. With v6 launching now, Lunacy continues to evolve into the most full-featured FREE graphics program out there. Join thousands of new users that have started using Lunacy since our version 5 launch last winter. With a myriad of amazing icons, photos, and illustrations baked-in by default it is a fun change of pace compared to traditionally complicated asset management. tl;dr - If you haven’t tried it recently, Lunacy is a blazing-fast vector editor packed with smart features to make you a better designer. Even though we have a full team working on it now, it is still a completely free program (who else can say that?!). I encourage you to give it a shot now! New features in version 6 ✏ Support for Sketch Cloud and Sketch Plugins (beta) 🎨 Smart style suggestions and tidying ✨ Automatic background removal using AI (rolling out to all users soon) 🚀 Significant speedups in opening and saving documents

Bloggers and reporters, if you write about us, drop us a line on the comments and we'll publish your news on this page. We do that with other products for at least a year; I feel that a backlink from Producthunt is one small thing we can do for you in exchange!

The automatic background removal is interesting! How accurate is it? Find some tools I use are not so much and then others blow my mind such as remove.bg 🤯

@aaronoleary in short, ours is not so much in this version. We use it mostly for removing backgrounds at https://generated.photos which are quite easy. However, we'll release a new version along with a standalone service. We're making much progress here. For example, there's a separate team masking images full time for 2 years.

@aaronoleary I've recorded a small demo for you

I've been watching Lunacy progress from version 2, and it's amazing to see how high it's got now, especially considering that the software is completely free for all users. Kudos to the team, looking forward to seeing what's next!

@visualpharm looks impressive! And totally well-deserved.

Any plans for the Mac version?

@csaba_kissi I wish I can could say yes, but making it happen is extremely difficult. That's why Sketch doesn't work on Windows despite $100M revenue. We'll have to rewrite the whole interface which is 40% of work. Another problem is few engineers develop on Mac these days. We have to wait until they integrate both platforms, so iOS developers could join the team. The rendering core is portable though, so if we have scale the team 2x, it's possible.

Thanks for new version! I use Lunacy often. I confess, in particular because of the free hosting images 😬

@adi_u btw, the latest version, 6.3 has faster render than Sketch, not to say Figma and others.

@adi_u @visualpharm 6.3 will be launched tomorrow on a website and on a weekend at MS Store.

Woah, background removal feature! That's cool👍 And when you say "rolling out to all users soon", how soon is your "soon"? From 1 to "in 1... 2... 3"?🙃

WAIT. Are you telling me I can finally play with sketch files...on a windows PC?! I never had a Mac and I would look at all the sketch files on Product Hunt (whether free or not) and wish I could use them, especially when adding to websites.

Hey I'd love to contribute to porting this app to linux or wrapping it around wine. Who should I contact? The app starts sometimes in wine (just the first screen) but mostly crashes with "Lunacy.Controls.RulerControl.Ruler -> No glyphtypeface for ruler found".
