3[Inkscape](https://inkscape.org) is a powerful vector graphics editor.

5## Plugins {#inkscape-plugins}
6Inkscape plugins are collected in the [`inkscape-extensions`](https://search.nixos.org/packages?channel=unstable&type=packages&query=cudaPackages) package set.
7To enable them, use an override on `inkscape-with-extensions`:
8
9```nix
10inkscape-with-extensions.override {
11 inkscapeExtensions = with inkscape-extensions; [ inkstitch ];
12}
13```
14
15Similarly, this works in the shell:
16
17```bash
18$ nix-shell -p 'inkscape-with-extensions.override { inkscapeExtensions = with inkscape-extensions; [inkstitch]; }'
19[nix-shell:~]$ # Ink/Stitch is now available via the extension menu
20[nix-shell:~]$ inkscape
21```
22
23All available extensions can be enabled by passing `inkscapeExtensions = null;`.

25::: {.note}
26Loading the Inkscape extensions stand-alone (without using `override`) does not affect Inkscape at all.
