About Bforartists

Bforartists is a fork of Blender that states its goal is to improve the graphical interface and usability. It supports modeling, rigging, animation, simulation, rendering and compositing. Files transfer between Bforartists and Blender, so both can be used alongside each other. The stated audience is hobbyists and indie developers. Working binaries are on the project website, while GitHub Actions nightlies lack CUDA and OptiX and are not meant for productive work.
