What is WordCraft?
WordCraft is a native word processor for macOS that helps people write, edit, and format documents with a familiar ribbon-style workspace. It is designed for users who want a desktop document editor that supports common office-style workflows such as headings, tables, page layout, comments, and tracked changes. WordCraft can open and save .docx files, work with formats including ODT, RTF, HTML, Markdown, and plain text, and export documents to PDF. It also includes tools for references, citations, bibliographies, tables of contents, and mail merge, which makes it useful for school, research, and business writing. The app runs offline and is distributed as free open-source software by Learning Machines LLC.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
WordCraft is a legitimate document editor with normal file access needs for opening, saving, and exporting your work. Because it handles personal and work documents, use the same care you would with any word processor: store sensitive files where you trust the location, review documents before sharing, and keep backups of important work. Removing the app will not remove files you created unless you delete those documents separately.
Recommendation: Keep WordCraft if you use it for writing or document editing on your Mac. Remove it only if you no longer need the app, and keep any documents you want to preserve before uninstalling.
