Nano-Banana-Desktop
A desktop AI image editing utility for Linux, powered by Nano Banana.
A desktop image editing utility for Linux that leverages Google's Gemini Flash 2.5 Images (Nano Banana) for AI-powered image transformations.
This is an early-stage experimental project that provides a functional desktop interface for applying AI-powered image transformations using Google's Gemini API. The basic implementation has been validated and works reliably for image-to-image transformations using prompt templates.
This v1.0.0 release represents a minimal viable product that demonstrates: - Working Gemini API integration for image transformations - Desktop GUI with tab-based workflow - Prompt template library for common edits - Basic image versioning and backup

The model does the heavy lifting and the desktop wrapper stays out of its way, which is the right call. I would like a seed field and a way to keep prompt history per image, because reproducibility matters when you are iterating on a mask.
A native window for inpainting on Linux feels almost luxurious after years of browser tabs. The masking flow is direct and the results land where you expect. It reads like a starter, but an honest and usable one.
Keyboard focus order needs work and the canvas could announce state changes for screen readers, but the core editing loop is approachable. Labels are clear, contrast is mostly fine, and nothing important hides behind a hover. A promising base to build on.
