Creative & Design
Creative and Design holds the tools and references people use to make things. Image editing and design covers editors, background removers, and graphic tools for web and print. Design assets and inspiration collects colour palettes, icon sets, mockups, and galleries worth browsing. Stock images and visual assets lists photo libraries and free image sources, and 3D and CAD covers modelling, rendering, and technical drawing software. Audio editing and production sits here too, with recording, mixing, and mastering tools, while video tools and production handles cutting, encoding, and motion work. Entries range from large commercial suites to single-purpose web apps and small open source projects. Licences differ a lot, so read the terms before you use an asset in client work or a project you plan to sell.
