Develop edits now save themselves to a sidecar the moment you leave the image, so until this there was no way to undo one — the mistake was persisted and the only recourse was to remember the old number. The history is a stack of snapshots, because the edit graph is already plain data: `Preset::capture` reduces it to what differs from default and `Preset::apply` puts it back, so undo is those two calls and nothing else. A command object per action, with an inverse beside it, would have been a second thing every operation had to register — and operations are declared in YAML precisely so that a new one needs no code written for it. A snapshot cannot fall behind them. The interesting part is coalescing. A slider drag emits an event per frame and must be one step, not forty. Nothing in the interface reports a gesture boundary — the same wall the render coalescing hit, and it is answered the same way rather than by threading a "finger is down" out of every slider, curve point and crop handle. What stands in for the boundary is the control plus recency: changes to the same control within 700 ms amend one step. Which control is "the same" is asked of the graph, not listed: an operation whose declared presentation claims a parameter is one where a single gesture moves several — a curve point carries an x and a y — so those coalesce as one widget. Nothing in the history names the tone curve. The compromise, and it is a real one: a control let go of and picked up again within the window is one step rather than two. Buying the other answer costs a gesture-boundary signal on every control, which is more surface than the difference is worth. The stack is bounded at 64 states for NFR-RES-1 — a develop session stays open for hours. Sixty-four rather than a byte cap: what is being bounded is steps a photographer would want back, and a byte cap would give the elaborate edit the shallowest history, which is exactly backwards. The session owns its history and every mutator records into it, so the callbacks in `lib.rs` cannot change the edit and forget to — with a dozen generic callbacks that would have been one press of undo away from wrong every time a control was added. Opening a photograph makes its stored edit the floor rather than a step: it is not work done in this sitting, and an undo reaching behind it would discard a previous session's edit and then save that on the way out. Not yet done, from FR-DEV-5: history is per-session and in memory, and there are no named snapshots. What mattered was that a saved mis-drag had no way back at all.

DarkRoom
A cross-platform, non-destructive RAW photo editor for Linux and Android.
Status: early. v0.1 is a remote library viewer — see docs/milestone-v0.1.md.
Documentation

Building
Desktop:
cargo run -p darkroom-desktop
Android (containerised toolchain, see docker/android):
./docker/android/build.sh cargo ndk -t arm64-v8a build --release
Current state
Working: workspace, GPU context and compute pass, adaptive Slint shell, Android cross-compilation of the core crates.
Not yet working: the zero-copy display path. The build currently uploads frames through the CPU, which is exactly what ARCH §6.1 forbids — measured at 96% of frame time at 4K. Replacing it is spike S1, the project's highest priority.
cargo run -p dr-gpu --example bench --features readback
reproduces that measurement.
