LibreSprite originated as a fork of Aseprite, developed by David Capello. Aseprite used to be distributed under the GNU General Public License version 2, but was moved to a proprietary license on August 26th, 2016.
This fork was made on the last commit covered by the GPL version 2 license, and is now developed independently of Aseprite.

Free pixelart editor, based on older version of Aseprite. It's less powerfull than what Aseprite is now, but it's enough for beginners, non-professional artist and minimalists of all kind
Free and Open Source Software
Windows Smartscreen blocked the installer. Even if I could unlock the program from the properties myself, the ones who compiled the
exehave to do something about it. I'll try it again after they fix this.Keeping Aesprite open source and free for all users! Great for making pixel art.
Great free/libre alternative to Aseprite for creating and animating sprites :)
Don't get me wrong, I'm also a fan of Aseprite (best pixel art program IMO), but I loved when it was distributed under GPL2 (sadly Aseprite is propietary since 2016). Now luckily LibreSprite is active again, and its devs are continuing with its development.
