# Every app on Earth is now open source... whether it likes it or not

**[Fireship](https://daily.dev/sources/fireship)** · 5 min read · 5 upvotes · 2 comments

## Summary

A satirical, comedic take on a developer who used Claude to reverse-engineer Adobe's Creative Cloud apps (Artcraft) and rebuild them in Rust as free, open-source alternatives. The host tests the resulting FilmCraft app and finds it laggy and barely usable despite being vibecoded. The video then showcases a tool called Reverse Engineer Anything (REA), paired with Ghidra, that can decompile native binaries (ELF, PE, JVM bytecode, firmware, OCI layers) to extract pseudo-code which an AI coding agent can reimplement. The host jokingly builds his own stripped-down Premiere clone and a parody Supabase alternative called Studbase, mixing absurdist humor with a sponsored segment for Apify's MCP server.

> I tried PhotoCraft and it was....yikes. A total waste of time. Uninstalled within a few minutes. This was a massive overblown situation.

> photoCraft ships as a bloated electron app, so you get gigabytes of RAM and seconds of cold‑start latency on modest hardware, what's the plan for reducing that overhead
