layoutit-grid VS PhotoGIMP

These things are worth knowing but for all but the simplest layouts, I still use an interactive design tool to generate the layout.

I'm not making excuses for my ignorance —I use grid daily— it's just easier to visualise and label, well, visually.

There are many online grid generators, but I use https://grid.layoutit.com/

Grid Layout Generator

I used the website https://grid.layoutit.com to generate the grid. Here is a link to my grid in there: https://grid.layoutit.com/?id=LFdpqT3

Since you are using figma you can try to export project as a HTML/CSS. This can be a first approach. On other hand, try to use grid generator e.g https://grid.layoutit.com/ or https://cssgrid-generator.netlify.app/

i would actually suggest just creating a CSS grid - i find it easier than trying to position everything perfectly. you can find easy grid makers by looking up "css grid generator", i use this one a lot: https://grid.layoutit.com/

I used to use PhotoShop heavily and still have a lot of the UI muscle-memorized. I switched to GIMP + https://github.com/Diolinux/PhotoGIMP and found it mostly fits my needs for basic image editing.

There's also photoGimp:

But it's interesting if we can get FOSS Gui toolkits that allow for different approaches to menu/toolbar/discovery where the user can easily adjust and select how things should work - like readline Emacs/vi selection on steroids for Gui.

There is this project that might help you:

I doubt it, code needs to be maintained , even if you will get stuck on old libraries you could miss out on features and improvement, of course if the changes are small and it's more like a patchset (something like photogimp) , that might be more feasible.

I don't like gimp at all, but you can still try PhotoGimp.

did you try PhotoGIMP?
