More info
Blender is a free and open-source 3D creation suite used to build 3D content for films, games, visual effects, product design and more. It supports the full 3D pipeline—modeling, rigging, animation, simulation, rendering, compositing, motion tracking and video editing—and is distributed under the GNU General Public License so anyone can use, modify, and redistribute it. For an official overview see the Blender About page and the license details on the Blender website (official About page and license information). (blender.org)
Beyond those core tools, Blender is cross-platform (Windows, macOS, Linux), uses OpenGL for a consistent interface, and includes a Python API so users and studios can script custom tools or create add-ons. The project is coordinated by the Blender Foundation and driven by a global community; that combination makes it especially attractive to individual artists and small studios who want a unified, adaptable pipeline without licensing costs. For a concise feature list and user-oriented description see the official software listing and community pages (feature overview on Steam listing and official site). (store.steampowered.com)
