Hello everyone, today you can finally download Vectr on Ubuntu and experience one of the best and yet somehow still underrated vector graphics editor. I admit, I just downloaded this software a couple days ago and it is already one of my favorite to use.

Today we will highlight some reasons why you should go ahead and install Vectr on your Linux OS, at very least I think it worth your time to try it out and then judge for yourself if you want to keep it or not. For those of you who love editing or making Vector graphics, Vectr is probably the only software you will need. If you love using Adobe Illustrator, Vectr could very well be the best Illustrator alternative that is also free and with a great UI to top it off. Vectr like any standard vector graphics editor, can open, create and edit AI, EPS, SVG, PNG, JPEG files without a problem. I personally think the Linux community needs to give Vectr the spotlight and I hope when you take a look at the screenshots and info below, you will try and install it yourself. To make matters even easier for those of you who want to try it out, you can now install Vectr as SNAP app, basically you click a button and it will be installed. Let me know in the comments what you think about it once you try it.
