The GNU Image Manipulation Program or GIMP (, GHIMP) is a free and open-source raster graphics editor. GIMP is always stylized in capitals and was formerly stylized as The GIMP.
GIMP is commonly used for photo retouching, image editing, free-hand drawing, and converting between different image file formats. GIMP is not designed for drawing, however, artists and creators still use GIMP for drawing.
GIMP is freely available on Microsoft Windows, Linux and macOS. It is licensed under version 3.0 or later of the GNU General Public License (GPL). The GIMP project is a non-profit supported by a community of volunteers. Users are encouraged to contribute.
GIMP supports plugins and scripting, allowing users to extend its features and automate tasks.
