    It’s a tool that helps ‘trace’ a raster image into vector shapes and paths

    it’s useful for creating vector artwork from raster images - sometimes a logo or icon is only available in a poor resolution raster image, and so having an easy way to convert it into vector saves a ton of time.

    I used it yesterday to create an SVG file for CNC plotting of a company logo. It would have taken me a few hours to hand-trace it myself

      I sometimes get commissioned to make a logo here and there. This would come in very handy.
