Generated from our catalog & community — verify before relying on it.
Several solid RAW-processing options are available on Linux:
- darktable: A dedicated open-source RAW workflow and editing application that has become a popular Linux choice.
- rawtherapee: Another strong open-source RAW editor. It has been available through source builds and is commonly packaged in many Linux distributions, so it may be installable directly from your package manager.
- aftershot pro: A commercial cross-platform RAW editor for Linux, Mac, and Windows. It is based on Bibble technology after Bibble Pro was discontinued.
In short, if you want free and open-source tools, darktable and rawtherapee are the main options mentioned. If you want a commercial alternative, aftershot pro is the successor to Bibble Pro on Linux.
