Vectr is like a free version of Adobe Illustrator

Get your graphics game on, without spending a penny

Fancy yourself a dab-handed illustrator? You no longer need to shell out for Adobe Illustrator: meet Vectr, a free vector maker that’ll have you crafting glorious graphics in a jiffy. Vectors use points rather than pixels to make scalable images, and Vectr makes making those a cinch. Phew. You can craft paths, draw shapes, play with layers and styles and, well, do just about anything your creative brain can muster. Though it might be too simple for pros, Vectr is built with useful collaboration features, too – such as the ability to share links for live co-working on the same design.
