Photopea

Photopea is a free, powerful image editor that runs entirely in your web browser, offering a Photoshop-like experience — including support for PSD files — without any installation or cost. Professional image editing has traditionally meant expensive software and a significant download, putting it out of reach for casual users and those on a budget. Photopea changes that by delivering a remarkably capable editor right in the browser, for free, that even opens and edits Photoshop files, making advanced image editing accessible to anyone with a web browser.

The editor provides a familiar, Photoshop-style interface with layers, masks, selections, adjustments, filters, text, and the tools needed for serious photo editing and graphic design. It opens and saves many formats, crucially including PSD (Photoshop) files, so it can fit into workflows alongside professional tools or serve as a complete free alternative. Despite running in the browser and being free, it's surprisingly powerful, handling detailed editing tasks that many assume require paid desktop software. It's supported by ads, with an option to remove them, keeping the core editor free for everyone.

Photopea is used by anyone who needs to edit images or create graphics without paying for or installing professional software — students, hobbyists, small businesses, and even professionals needing a quick edit or PSD access on a machine without Photoshop. The value is professional-grade editing for free, anywhere: it puts powerful, Photoshop-like image editing in the browser at no cost, including the ability to work with PSD files, removing the barriers of price and installation. For the many situations where someone needs capable image editing but can't or won't use expensive desktop software, Photopea is an invaluable resource. As a free, browser-based, Photoshop-compatible editor, it has earned a large, appreciative user base.
