Hey @TJFREE great video, I have been using penpot for about a year now. Quick addition to your navigation section you can hold spacebar and then you can click and drag around the canvas.
So far it's easy as pie, but as you mentioned, they're just the very basics. I'm excited about what can we do with this app, seems interesting! I guess you can set up grids as well, which makes designing a lot more easier.
Great tutorial sir 😊. I've heard that you can do motion graphics work with softwares like Figma . It would be really great you include motion graphics tutorials in this playlist (if there is an option to do motion graphics work with Penpot) . Thanks again.
Thanks, great idea. There is currently support for basic animation, like slide in/out a menu. I think more advanced featured are being worked on for future releases.
For the industry, not really, that I am aware of. IE, to get a job at a company, you need to master the industry standard tools (maybe Figma, Sketch, Invision or Adobe XD, depending on what that company uses. I'd rather learn those (at least one of them) than a less known, less standard one). If you are freelancer, it depends. It's best idea to go with industry standard tools, anyways, as you will find clients actually requiring compatibility (in file formats, workflows, team work, etc) with such standard tools (Figma, Sketch, Photoshop, etc). But there are cases where freelancers only works by their own, and their clients merely are small business that just require full developed and designed sites. In that case, a non industry standard tool can be just as good for showing some prototypes (even just some screens) to the client. At least that's my 2c.
That said, reading now a bit about this app, and as Figma has been acquired by Adobe and is part of the Adobe Cloud subscription now, it could be the case that many companies embrace it as their main prototyping tool. Also, it seems to have most of the essential features. Being open source is also a certain warrant of longevity (if doesn't get abandoned or slows their dev pace too much). It has good funding behind it, though. Probably not a bad idea to learn it.
Good question. Penpot and Inkscape have different use cases. Penpot has specific tools for website and app design, and is much better than Inkscape at this. Inkscape has more features and tools than Penpot, and is better at creating vector artwork in general, and it much more versatile than Penpot.
Sorry, I only promote free and open source software. I do have a playlist for LMMS for music production, and hope to add Ardour tutorials in the future also. Both are excellent, professional music production tools.

Thanks for sharing! I'm thinking of making a keyboard shortcut reference guide for Penpot.
Love that you're covering PenPot! 😍
Let's go!!!

😍 This is much appreciated!!!
You are very clear. Thanks
Love it! Thank you
If I have knowledge on how to use Figma then I should be able to use PenPot, right ?

Yes, they are very similar, including many of the same keyboard shortcuts. If you are already familiar with Figma, Penpot will feel intuitive.

@@3polygons Man I'll str**gle you through the screen
Have you looked at the question ?
@@AcidiFy574 You WHAT?
👍👍👍
Nice, why would you use this over inkscape, it's easier yeah?

@@TJFREE it appears less overwhelming too. Like going from sketchup to a full fledged cad program ( no offence Justin 😅 )
Logic Pro tutorial please....???

@@TJFREE Well in that case, I hope to see you try Bespoke-Synth
(Yes it's FOSS)
@@AcidiFy574 Wow, looks great! Thanks for sharing.
