Inkscape

The store page looked a bit sketchy so I was skeptical but it seems they are working on updating it as the icon has already changed since I installed. It's full-featured Inkscape- the best free vector image editor available!

I've used Inkscape as a casual user for the past couple of years and find it to be a great vector graphics program. Now it is in the Windows Store which is a nice improvement. The thousands of files and multiple registry entries shouldn't have any chance of bogging down my system. I had not noticed issues before, but this gives an extra measure of confidence everything will continue to be updated and work exactly as it should. Thanks to the developers for putting it in the store.

It is great for Inkscape to finally embrace UWP as Centennial... however there are some mishaps such as the app not properly scaled for higher DPI (try to open the preferences dialog with 200% scaling) and currently the apps does not embrace the API like live tiles etc.

Although this program is a very powerful vector graphics editor, it suffers many problems. The biggest problem is the UI. It is clunky, hard to use, slow, outdated, and the worst of all, does not scale with high resolution displays. That's right. If you use a computer with a 2k or 4k screen like the Lenovo Yoga, the UI is going to fail to scale with the screen size and everything is going to appear extremely tiny. It is completely unusable on high resolution laptops and that is a HUGE problem.

Thanks for bringing this to the Store. Now just add a XAML UI, and make sure to keep it as bug free as humanly possible. We love you!
