+Inkscape. Draw Freely.
+======================
+
+[https://www.inkscape.org/](https://www.inkscape.org/)
+
+Inkscape is an open source drawing tool with capabilities similar to
+Illustrator, Freehand, and CorelDRAW that uses the W3C standard scalable
+vector graphics format (SVG). Some supported SVG features include
+basic shapes, paths, text, markers, clones, alpha blending, transforms,
+gradients, and grouping. In addition, Inkscape supports Creative Commons
+meta-data, node-editing, layers, complex path operations, text-on-path,
+and SVG XML editing. It also imports several formats like EPS, Postscript,
+JPEG, PNG, BMP, and TIFF and exports PNG as well as multiple vector-based
+formats.
+
+Inkscape's main motivations are to provide the Open Source community
+with a fully W3C compliant XML, SVG, and CSS2 drawing tool emphasizing a
+lightweight core with powerful features added as extensions, and the
+establishment of a friendly, open, community-oriented development
+processes.
