What is Blender?
Blender is a free and open-source 3D content creation suite available for all major operating systems under the GNU General Public License. It supports the entire 3D pipeline, including modeling, rigging, animation, simulation, rendering, compositing, and motion tracking, as well as video editing and 2D animation. Blender's features include a node-based material and compositing system, Python scripting for embedded scripting, and a range of tools for 3D printing, character animation, sculpting, simulation, and rendering
