Hot take
Lunacy by Icons8 is a robust, cross-platform vector graphic design app tailor-made for UI, UX, and web designers. It stands out with an impressive library of over a million free icons, photos, and illustrations, plus built-in AI tools for background removal, image upscaling, avatar generation, and smarter text. Lunacy’s workflow prioritizes speed, privacy, and offline capability, allowing you to work solo or collaborate in real time—no subscriptions required for core features. While the abundance of free resources is a boon, attribution is necessary unless you upgrade, and some users may find the ecosystem less established compared to design giants like Figma. Still, for independent creators and teams seeking a free, fast, and privacy-respecting design suite, Lunacy packs a lot of value without legacy bloat.
