What I've learned through Contributing Skills (Other than Coding) to the Inkscape Project (Above and beyond learning about open-source software and communities, being a contributor to the Inkscape Project has enabled me to collaborate with people around the world. Together, through bringing our skills to the table, we’re advancing this complex and beautiful tool that offer everyone who is interested the ability to Draw Freely.
@zigzagmlt , en)
Growing my surface pattern design practice with Inkscape (I use Inkscape to draw digital elements to take advantage of designing vectors. It seems like Inkscape and I have grown over the years. During this short talk, I’ll share a bit about my practice, some of my work and what I love most about working with Inkscape.
@speleo3 , de, en if audience is international)
Wie Du zum Inkscape-Entwickler wirst (Geschichte der Inkscape Entwicklung - Programmiersprachen und Bibliotheken - Buildsystem und Build Tools - GitLab - Kommunikation mit anderen Entwicklern
@speleo3 , de, en if audience is international)
Inkscape Plugins in Python Programmieren (Getting started as an extensions developer) (Wie funktionieren Inkscape "Extension" Plugins? Erstellen eines Plugins mit Python.
@prkos , en)
Introduction To Computer Graphics For Complete Newbies (This talk explains the basic concepts you need to understand to start your computer graphics journey. Learn about the fundamental differences between graphics types, when to use which type, which software to use in different cases, the concept of objects and layers as building blocks of your drawings. These concepts are universal, applicable to any graphics software. Examples in this talk use Inkscape and GIMP.
How To Use Inkscape For Web Design
The world of web design seems to be dominated by proprietary software, but there are FOSS solutions that can easily compete with them. Inkscape is one of those tools. Inkscape is powerful and incredibly versatile, and in this talk we'll show how it can be set up to be your default web design tool. We'll illustrate how to best use Inkscape and its features for common web design processes. Topics we'll cover: brand color palettes, grids and guides for responsive web layout, design components in layers, how to use clones wisely, and how to jump start new projects with templates.
