Summary

This concludes this first short chapter in this book. After the introduction, we took a closer look at the current state of Inkscape and saw that after years of constant development, this awesome program offers fast and stable versions on all major platforms, has a growing community with plenty of resources, and is ready for daily design work – even for professionals.

Then, you met your first challenge in this book. I hope you found the self-assessment exercise useful and that you now know your real Inkscape skill level. And I also hope it was setting your expectations for the upcoming projects in this book as they all will be more interesting and complex than this short warmup exercise!

After establishing the position of Inkscape as a relevant design tool and measuring your skills, it is time to move forward! In the next chapter, we will dive into creative territory by using Inkscape to design a clever tech logo.
