#### Word processor that opens and saves Word files

WordCraft is an open-source, native word processor for writing and designing documents, with support for opening and saving Word (DOCX) files.

WordCraft is part of the open-source ArtCraft "Crafting Apps": a native Rust
application that runs locally on your own files and can be driven from a CLI,
a JSON control channel or an MCP server.

This snap repackages the official upstream Linux release. The headless
command line tool is available as wordcraft.cli.
