N2D will be available Either 2day or 2morrow. The only thing I have to do is finish getting the new files and links setup to the site. I’m considering creating a Youtube Channel too. Not for views or anything like that,but simple cause I don’t know how to add an update Checker to the app. so i thought If in Future the app gets an update/ patch/ or performance improvements .Interested parties would know and be notified via via that channel.

It is I.The Site is Far From Finished. but the Downloads Should Be Working Now.
The App can be Found At https://nurture2d.pages.dev/ . Maybe bookmark it cause the link is weird and not standard.
Knock yourselves out with the app.
make sure the version you’re downloading is correct.the latest 2026 version.

youtube Link for anyone interested. https://www.youtube.com/@Nurture2d . there will be a few videos in the near future showing certain things that aren’t obvious in the app. things new users might think as hidden features cause its not plainly stated or documented.

Thank you!! I wasn’t able to respond, I couldn’t reach the site for some reason. I’ll try it out lol
No biggie 
As long as its out there I’m glad. hopefully it’ll prove worthy and help …well… “Nurture” the skills of the Diamonds in the rough that couldn’t really explore their potential cause of software gate keeping…
The following is not planned for now, but ill dabble with the code here an there for optimisations cause on my pc it works fine, but i want it to work on potato’s too.
I’m also thinking of dropping the complex rounding and visuals for most things as i found that eats a bit of processing power.
That said,it has all the features it needs, down the line its probably just a more Unified, Simpler yet more lightweight UI and theme.

I used the program to animate a simple gif, yeah I noticed it doesn’t export as movies yet, but there are some other things I noticed. First I wasn’t able to use the outer canvas or whatever its called, like drawing out of the main box(??) it was kinda necessary tbh, idk if the program lets me turn it back on though. Second is, the duplicate frame shortcut is there but I can’t use it. I thought maybe it’s about my F6 and switched it with F4 but still didn’t work. Another thing in normal Pencil2D, I was able to turn range off, but I don’t think there’s a feature like that here lol Besides these tho everything looks so fancy!
mp4 and Audio is unsupported right now.The outer canvas does exist,its in the Canvas menu ,its called Extra Space. you can extend the canvas by percentage ,or by manually putting in the resolution you want.the duplicate logic was dropped cause it caused the app to crash with the new system, something about the app being confused about what undo history belongs to where, the original or the duplicate,this confusion caused the crash. but you can get the same effect if you Copy and paste the drawing, or even simpler. create another key on the Timeline and hit MakeUnique button located in front of the add keyframe button. for example. we have a keyframe on frame 4, we want a duplicate, so we double click another frame,for example frame 5, put in the number 4 to make sure there another keyframe, then hit Make unique. Now that i think about it , in future i should probably create a new duplicate path that does all this since the result is the same…And Range is always on because the timeline uses Frame Generation. instead of reaching the end of the timeline and manually needing to extend the timeline to get more frames,the system does it for you, there are many ways the timeline checks for this. one way is via the end range, which is why its needed to stay on…Hope this helps.
Theme wise. if a another update comes out down the line it will not look like that, it will take a more flat simple look , not cause i want to,but because it needs to. it will function exactly the same,the only difference will be the look ,and certain interaction changes to boost performance . i think i mentioned before that it needs to be able to run on Old potato Pcs too. which it currently struggles with. and i don’t wanna gate keep the software from animators simply cause of hardware requirements. these are concepts of the future redesign.I’m sad to let the Mac Like rounded look go but we already have powerful features, the only thing we need now is performance and stability. (Sorry for the long message)

and regarding the number you input in the frame, its not actually 4,thats just an example. if we have a keyframe on frame 4 and the keyframes number shows 11, then on another frame we would double click, and type 11 , to get a copy,then we simply hit MakeUnique to make it a unique keyframe (Duplicate). the Animation system might be a bit different than normal pencil 2d.but its more safe and powerful .Created with the Anime Industry principles in mind

Thank you so much for replying to me, I hope this app gets better and more successful too. Kinda underrated at this moment. Also, I think some text in your site was not centered, I think it was the recommended hardware and stuff part. At least on PC lol, it was centered on my phone
uh also how do i get transparent colors or am i blind again
lol.its not on the slider,u gotta use the Papers pane/Dock,then simply adjust the opacity slider for the page/layer in question.
I didn’t know this was the case cause on my pc it looks fine.thanks for letting me know
