## What it is
A collection of free ExtendScript (JSX) scripts that extend Adobe Illustrator's functionality with automation and utility features. Scripts are installed into Illustrator's Scripts folder or run via drag-and-drop and script panels.

- speed up vector artwork editing workflows

## When to choose
- you use Adobe Illustrator CS6 through CC 2026 on Windows or macOS and want free automation utilities
- you want lightweight scripts instead of full paid plugins
- you need to automate repetitive vector editing tasks

## When to avoid
- you use other design tools like Figma, Affinity, or Inkscape
- you need a GUI plugin with panels rather than individual scripts
- you need Illustrator automation on platforms or versions outside the tested range

- function: developer-tools, workflow-automation, graphics
- domain: graphics, web-design, developer-tools
