A full-featured, open source image editor for screenshots, mockups, and lightweight design work without subscription traps.

GIMP isn't here to win a beauty contest; it's here to get work done. For developers who need to clean up screenshots, build simple UI mockups, or create graphics for docs and blogs, it's more than enough. Layers, masks, filters, export presets – it's all there, without monthly fees quietly draining your budget. The UI takes a bit of adjustment, but once you learn the basics, it's a reliable workhorse.

GIMP is a mature, open source image editor for screenshots, mockups, and blog graphics with zero subscriptions and plenty of power.
