Vectr
Vectr is a free, web-based and desktop vector graphics editor designed for creating logos, icons, illustrations and other scalable graphics. It offers a streamlined interface with tools for drawing shapes, pen paths, text, and effects like shadows and gradients. Vectr targets hobbyists, small business owners and students who want an accessible alternative to professional software like Adobe Illustrator or Affinity Designer. The desktop app provides offline editing capability and closer integration with the local filesystem compared to the web editor.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not confirm whether a native Apple Silicon build of Vectr exists — search results were unavailable and the developer's current architecture support is unclear. Because you are running on Intel build under Rosetta and Apple is removing Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028), it is important to verify the situation before that deadline. Contact Vectr directly via their support page or website to ask whether a native Apple Silicon build is planned or already available. If the developer confirms no native version is coming, you may want to evaluate alternatives like Affinity Designer, Sketch, or Inkscape (free, open-source), all of which offer native Apple Silicon builds and similar vector editing capabilities. In the interim, your current Intel build will continue to work under Rosetta, but you should not rely on it beyond 2028.
