What is Photopea?
Photopea is a full image editor that looks and works much like Adobe Photoshop, but runs entirely in a browser tab. It has layers, masks, adjustment layers, blend modes, the pen tool, smart objects and most of the shortcuts Photoshop users already know.
It can open and save PSD files as well as Sketch, XD, Figma exports, PDF, SVG and RAW photos. Files are processed locally in your browser, so you can edit without uploading your work anywhere.
