Adobe Illustrator
Professional drawing application
Adobe Illustrator is vector graphics software used for creating logos, illustrations, typography, and other design work.
Unlike pixel-based image editors, Illustrator uses mathematical paths that scale infinitely without losing quality.
It's an industry standard among graphic designers and often paired with Photoshop: I drew the logo in Illustrator, then brought it into Photoshop for texturing.
