Blender

Blender's interface is infamously complex. Lumini sees your viewport and explains what every button does.

Why Blender is hard

Blender is the most powerful free 3D software — and the most intimidating. The default interface has dozens of panels: 3D Viewport, Outliner, Properties, Timeline, Shader Editor, UV Editor, and more. Everything is a hotkey. Right-click selects instead of left-click. The learning curve is a wall. Beginners spend more time watching YouTube tutorials than actually modeling.

How Tutor mode helps

Tutor mode is transformative for Blender. Open Blender, enable Tutor mode, and start doing anything. Click something, press a key, select an object. When you pause, Lumini explains what just happened and what to do next. 'You just entered Edit Mode — now you can select vertices, edges, or faces. Try pressing 1, 2, or 3 to switch between them.' It points at the toolbar and properties panel as it explains.

How Lumini automates tasks

Lumini handles the reference material workflow. 'Lumini, search the web for Blender texture painting tutorial.' 'Lumini, create a note with the hotkeys I need to remember for this session.' 'Lumini, open the Blender manual in Safari.' 'Lumini, remind me to render this scene overnight.'
