Adobe launched its Creative SDK in June, and it has thus far been in private beta. Today, as announced at the company’s Max conference in Los Angeles, Adobe has now released a public beta of the software library that lets third-party developers tap into Adobe’s Creative Cloud technology.
A brief demo by Threadless Make, a artist community T-shirt company, offered a glimpse of how developers will be able to tap into the product. Threadless Make demoed how it used the technology to help create T-shirts on an iPad by importing files, tweaking the design, styling it on a T-shirt canvas and submitting the finished piece on the iPad.
Adobe also briefly revealed the names of various other visually oriented third party vendors that will also be tapping into its SDK for their products.
