Inkscape is an open source vector graphics editor. Its goal is to be fully compliant with the SVG and CSS standards.
Inkscape was originally a code fork from the Sodipodi project caused by differences over objectives and development approach. It places emphasis on open access to the codebase for all active developers, and participation in the larger open source community. The Inkscape fork has, among other things, changed from using the C programming language to C++; changed to the GTK toolkit C++ bindings (Gtkmm); redesigned the user interface and added a huge number of new features.
Inkscape supports grouping, affine transformations, z-order operations, direct node editing, freehand drawing, several flexible shape tools, converting to path, boolean operations, path simplification and offsetting, text kerning and tracking, multi-stop gradients, dashed strokes, path markers (e.g. arrowheads), clones (linked copies), pattern fills, live watching and editing the document tree in the XML editor, PNG and PostScript export, and more. Inkscape is currently under active development, with new features being added regularly.
