# Drawing
This simple image editor, similar to Microsoft Paint, is aiming at the GNOME
desktop.
PNG, JPEG and BMP files are supported.
[
](https://circle.gnome.org/)
Besides GNOME, the app is well integrated in traditional-looking desktops, as
well as [elementaryOS](./docs/screenshots/0.8/elementary_labels.png).
It should also be compatible with the *Pinephone* and *Librem 5*
[smartphones](./docs/screenshots/1.0/librem_menu.png).
