Embedded graphics deserve better editor

Embedded GUI tools have long lagged behind web and mobile counterparts—slower development cycles, fragmented ecosystems, limited design capabilities, and a lack of modern UX support.

While web and mobile platforms benefit from rich, collaborative tools and rapid iteration, embedded development remains tied to vendor-specific solutions and constrained by hardware and legacy workflows.

The result: a significant gap in tooling quality and design velocity. Embedded developers still deal with long flash-debug cycles, minimal prototyping support, and underpowered design environments.

• Web and mobile GUI tools are feature-rich, modern, and evolve rapidly
• Real-time collaboration, prototyping, and design-to-dev handoff are standard
• Frameworks and design systems (React, Material Design) drive consistency and speed
• Tools like Figma, Sketch, and Adobe XD offer seamless workflows and powerful UX capabilities
• Development cycles are fast, with emulators, live previews, and hot-reloading
• Massive open-source ecosystems and communities accelerate innovation

We believe it's time to rethink embedded GUI development from the ground up. The shift must prioritize developer experience, modern design standards, and faster iteration — without sacrificing performance, reliability, or real-time requirements.

Lopaka.app is our answer: a purpose-built embedded graphics editor designed to bring modern design workflows into the embedded space. Focused, efficient, and hardware-aware — because embedded graphics deserve better.
