Darktable Overview

darktable is a free, open-source photography workflow application and RAW developer for Windows, macOS, and Linux, released under the GPL. It is organized around a non-destructive editing model: your original RAW files are never changed, and all adjustments are stored as instructions you can revisit at any time. It provides a lighttable for organizing and culling images and a darkroom with professional modules for exposure, color, tone, lens corrections, noise reduction, and more. It supports the RAW formats of most camera manufacturers and is a popular free alternative to subscription photo workflows. As a single complete installer, Darktable finishes setup on a machine that has no connection. It also offers tethered shooting, masks and blending for local adjustments, and a map view that organizes photos by location.
