## What it is
Ucupaint is a Blender add-on for managing layered textures and materials in the Eevee and Cycles renderers. It provides a layer-based painting workflow accessible from the 3D View or Node Editor sidebar.

## Use cases
- manage texture layers in blender
- paint layered materials for eevee and cycles
- create pbr texture stacks in blender
- non-destructive texture layering addon
- bake layered textures in blender

## When to choose
- you work in Blender and need layer-based texture management
- you want a free, open-source alternative to layered texture workflows
- you use Eevee or Cycles and need organized material layers

## When to avoid
- you use a 3D tool other than Blender
- you need texture painting outside of Blender's ecosystem
