To get the most out of this book

Although you can follow most of the lessons in this book with older versions of Inkscape, I’ve written this book specifically for the brand-spanking-new version, which is 1.3 at the time of writing. My aim is to give you the most value out of reading this book. There is a ton of new time-saving awesomeness in 1.3 that makes it worth the upgrade if you happen to be using an older version.

Software/hardware covered in the book	Operating system requirements
Inkscape 1.3	Windows, macOS, or Linux

You can download the latest version of Inkscape at https://www.inkscape.org, which contains installation instructions for your particular operating system.
