Free Software that I rely on. One per day, I guess.

Okay.... Day 1....

Inkscape

A vector graphics editor (edits SVG documents).

I use this in a lot of different ways whenever I need a drawing:

  • Presentation slides
  • Graphic illustrations/diagrams
  • "Decal" graphics for 3D textures
  • Layout of images or other graphics
  • Video poster/cover graphics
  • Book design

https://inkscape.org

Also included in most desktop Linux distributions, I believe.

Video poster graphic for one of my timelapse videos. Includes a photo of me, a cover image from the music for the video, titles, and a logo featuring clocks and the word "TIMELAPSE" with the date (JUNE 2025).
Lunar Transportation System mission profile diagram from Lunatics Project. Shows the stylized Earth and Moon with orbit schematics and various spacecraft combinations in different mission stages. Also includes logo graphics for in-universe LTS and a schematic of the "moon shuttle" configuration.

Day 16:

Kdenlive

I'm pretty sure this is that rarity among modern software package names -- an actual acronym for (I think): "K Desktop Environment Non-Linear Interactive Video Editor".

Well, in any case, that's what it is, so it fits.

This is a pretty featureful video editor and it is my choice for editing everything from my daily screen logs to my animated project, "Lunatics!"

It's difficult to overstate the importance of this one to me.

The only notable flaws are that it does crash more often than I would like (but it recovers very well), and it might be on the slow side for rendering. Definitely good to use "proxy workflow" for high-definition projects. Which I do.

I'm using v22.12. I believe the most recent is v25.08 stable or v25.12 testing.

    Dear VJs and graphics coders:

    Is there a that runs custom code?

    I spend way too much time bouncing my own shaders to video clips. 🤔

    Shutter Encoder is a new free GPL app (donationware optionally) that is a front-end to ffmpeg. It's kind of like Handbrake, or Avidemux, or LosslessCut, but with a lot more ffmpeg options exposed. Available for Mac, Win, and Linux.
