CLUSTER ART-EDITOR-PIXEL · 29 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2019-08-25
Pixel art editors
This cluster comprises pixel art and graphics editors, mostly browser-based or desktop, featuring grid-based drawing, palettes, and some node-based or modal workflows. Dated entries are sparse before 2019, with a small cluster in 2019 and a few in 2025-2026, totaling 15 dated entries before the index start. Traction leaders are XSTeditor, pixelart, and PixiEditor, all with 0 stars.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
