Inkscape is a free, open-source vector graphics editor. Vector graphics are scalable, meaning they can be resized at any time without any loss in quality, and they are great for websites, games, mobile apps, printing, and much more.

Inkscape is an excellent alternative to Adobe Illustrator and Corel DRAW. They are also all very similar, so if you are transitioning from one of these other programs to Inkscape or you plan to transition to one of them from Inkscape in the future, you will have no issues.

In the Inkscape Essentials course, we'll use an entirely hands-on, project-based approach to learn all of the essential tools and features of Inkscape and how to use them to create amazing vector graphics. Whether you're a complete beginner to Inkscape or you've already been using it for a while, you will find this course to be very beneficial at helping you to build and improve your graphic design skills using Inkscape. Here are just a few of the dozens of topics we will be covering throughout the course:
