What is "inkscape"

Inkscape is a free and open-source vector graphics editor; it can be used to create or edit vector graphics such as illustrations, diagrams, line arts, charts, logos and complex paintings. Inkscape's primary vector graphics format is Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) version 1.1.

While Inkscape can import and export several formats, all editing workflow inevitably occur within the guidelines of the SVG format.

Inkscape can render primitive vector shapes (e.g. rectangles, ellipses, polygons, arcs, spirals, stars and 3D boxes), text and regions containing raster graphics. It also supports image tracing, enabling the editor to create vector graphics from photos and other raster sources. Created shapes can be subjected to further transformations, such as moving, rotating, scaling and skewing. These objects may be filled with solid colors, patterns, radiant or linear color gradient, their borders stroked or their transparency changed. , Inkscape does not support SVG animation or full Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) specifications.
