## What it is
TerraBrush is a GDExtension terrain heightmap editor plugin for Godot 4.5+. It provides brush-based sculpting, texture and color painting, foliage, scene scattering, water, and snow tools inside the Godot editor.

## Use cases
- sculpt terrain heightmaps in Godot
- paint textures and colors on game terrain
- scatter props and foliage on terrain
- add water and snow to a game level
- create caves or non-square terrain with hole painting

## When to choose
- you use Godot 4.5+ and need an in-editor terrain tool
- you want sculpting, texturing, foliage, and water in one addon
- you want a free MIT-licensed alternative to commercial terrain plugins

## When to avoid
- you use an engine other than Godot
- you need a standalone terrain modeling application
- you need features beyond what the author built for their own project

- maturity: active
- function: editor, graphics, simulation
