    One of the only professionally used software available for linux. It's also a bit of an industry standard, even though Toon Boom Harmony seems to be taking over.

    Draw your cartoon using frame-by-frame animation. It works just like the old school flipbook but with a modern twist!

    FlipaClip is not as advanced as opentoonz. It doesn’t have a stabilizer. It might be good for you but it’s not the same for me

    Very professional, has a feature where you can download different texture brushes, has onion skin, and just worth the price overall.
