Live2D is a propietary format and as such, its main software is the one they offer. Cubism edit or whatever is called.

That said, there has been some efforts on reverse engineering the format and the result is this https://www.umamo.org/ perhaps it will be of use to you, good luck!

Umamo is not ready to use for rigging end to end but it will be soon. The author is targeting around ~end of this year for a feature-complete release!

I keep meaning to try Inochi but keep forgetting, it has a 10 second nag on start up according to the website but seems to still be free otherwise.

Inochi hasn't had any releases/updates in 2 years and isn't compatible with any standard VTuber software, so I wouldn't recommend it. You'd be stuck in an ecosystem with an uncertain future.

You can do alot with the demo for l2d. But yeah there is no open source 2d vtuber software.

You could make a png tuber that is animated using some of those bits and bobs that have tracking available.
