Thirty years ago, I used the holidays to rewrite our in-house 3d tool from scratch, based on specs and design I worked on for a year. On January 2nd 1994, the first version of Blender was running!
I'm incredible proud, humbled and impressed of where it went. Happy 30th birthday :) #b3d

Today Blender turns 30! 🎂 Happy birthday and thanks to everyone for being part of this amazing community!

Here’s to the next 30 years! #b3d

I am nervous about it because there's so much packed in here and also it's based on some of my master's thesis research so it feels kind of precious to me.
