The process is an open, community-oriented development which focuses on a small core and extensibility.

The software development of Inkscape adheres to opensource standards, and is intended to provide the user community with a solid, usable product. The Download page lists released builds as well as some developmental and source code links. Inkscape is free! By this, we mean it is free of cost, free to use and distribute, and open to peek into the source code. It is cross-platform, which means it is easy to run on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux distributions. All Inkscape projects may be exported in formats friendly to web browsers or commercial printer rooms. The Inkscape application is used across a wide variety of industries (marketing/branding, engineering/CAD, web graphics, cartooning) and individual uses. Vector design is often the preferred method of image creation for logos, illustrations and art which require high scalability. If the user is new to the process of creating vector graphics it may feel different, but the user will quickly be pleased by the flexibility, and power Inkscape offers. Inkscape can take the user from this stage to a final, professional-grade design format which is ready for publication on the web or in physical form. The design process may begin by doodles on a napkin, a sketched mindmap, a photo of a memorable object, or a mockup in software which really wouldn't work to complete the project. What sets Inkscape apart is its use of Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG), an open XML-based W3C standard, as the native format. Inkscape is an open-source vector graphics editor similar to Adobe Illustrator, Corel Draw, Freehand, or Xara X.
