In their own words
IRA Design
IRA Design is a web-based tool for assembling illustrations from gradients and hand-drawn sketch components. Its gallery includes characters, objects, backgrounds, and outline versions of characters and objects. Users can select and customize components, mixing five gradient colors for characters and objects. The site describes a library of more than 200 individually designed components and says illustrations can be scaled without a change in quality. Gallery illustrations can be downloaded as SVG or PNG; the site also lists AI images alongside SVG and PNG. Components are available under the MIT License for personal or commercial projects. IRA Design is free: its listed plan is free. The site identifies developers building mobile apps and designers building apps as potential users. It lists Argon Design System PRO, BLK• Design System PRO, and Made with React as websites using the tool. Creative Tim is the maker; the project was founded in 2013 and is headquartered in Bucharest, Romania. Feature requests can be sent by email or raised as a GitHub issue.
