Click Install, and then navigate to blender it-3.2.0.220920.zip in your Downloads folder. BlenderKit will be added to the list of available add-ons. To enable BlenderKit, tick the box.
A suite of 3D computer graphics tools called Blender is available for free and is used to make animated movies, visual effects, artwork, 3D-printed models, motion graphics, interactive 3D apps, virtual reality, and, in the past, video games. 3D modeling, UV mapping, texturing, digital painting, raster graphics editing, rigging and skinning, fluid and smoke simulation, particle simulation, soft body simulation, sculpting, animation, match movement, rendering, motion graphics, video editing, and compositing are among Blender's capabilities.

How to download and Install Blender for mac and windows
Blender is a 3D animation suite that is ideal for novices who wish to experiment with 3D modeling. Because this is a free and open-source program developed by the Blender Organization, you do not need to invest money to try it. Blender, like other apps, must first be downloaded and installed. Blender is available on the following platforms:
Windows Vista, 7, 8, 10 32-bit/64-bit
Mac OS X 10.6+ 64-bit only
GNU Linux 32-bit/64-bit
FreeBSD 64-bit only
Navigate to the Blender website.
You can click on this link to go directly to the Blender download page. Blender is available for the following operating systems, but we will be using Windows in this article.
Run the installer. It will usually be located in your download folder.
If you used Google Chrome to download the installer, the download will be located at the bottom of the window’s screen. Click the .exe file to start the Installation Wizard.
If you used Firefox to download the installer, the download will be located in the toolbar under the arrow icon.
If you don't want to launch the installer in your browser, you can always locate it in your Downloads folder. Just double-click on it.
Start the installation process. Click Next.
Agree to the Terms and Conditions. When prompted, click I Agree in the installation wizard.
Your computer will need to have at least 226.2 MB of empty storage on your hard disk for the installation to be successful.
Choose a destination folder. The default location is the Program Files folder of Drive C:\ in your computer. You may change the location of the application by clicking Browse... Then click Install.
Wait for Blender to install. The status bar indicates the progress of the installation. Depending on your computer processor and speed, it will probably take less than 5 minutes.
Finish the installation. Click Finish when the installation is completed. Blender is now installed in your computer. You can start exploring the application when it starts automatically.
If you left the Run Blender option unchecked, there will be a shortcut icon of Blender located on your desktop. Just double-click on it to launch Blender.
Blender 3d Installing on macOS
Check the Downloading Blender page to find the minimum requirements and where to get Blender (if you have not done so yet).
Install from DMG
Blender for macOS is distributed as disk images (dmg-files). To mount the disk image, double-click on the dmg file. Then drag Blender. app into the Applications folder.
Depending on the Security and Privacy preferences of your Mac, macOS will request your approval before opening Blender for the first time.
Tip
How to Make a Portable Installation
To keep all configuration files and installed add-ons inside the Blender application bundle, create a folder named config in the LOCAL directory.
./Blender.app/Contents/Resources/3.3/config/
Updating on macOS
On macOS, there are various ways of updating Blender. This section covers the most common approach.
Updating with DMG
When an update for Blender is released, it can be downloaded directly from the Blender website. Install the new version by overwriting the current Blender.app in the Applications folder. You can rename Blender. app or place it in a different folder to have more than one version at a time.

What is a blender kit?
BlenderKit is a free and open-source 3D modeling, texturing, and rendering library for Blender that offers users a collection of materials and tools to aid in the creation of high-quality 3D scenes. Its primary purpose is to make 3D modeling, texturing, and rendering as simple and painless as possible. While BlenderKit was created largely by Blender Foundation members, it is currently the foundation for the community-created Blender Game Engine (BGE). Blender Institute members utilize the BGE to create video games in collaboration with prominent independent game developers. The BGE has been utilized for commercial reasons as well as by smaller teams all around the world to build their own games. BlenderKit has a diverse set of materials. Hundreds of pre-made textures are available for download, ranging from rusted metal to creamy leather. It also contains a set of simple yet effective techniques, including texture mapping and procedural textures. There is also a collection of 3D models that may be downloaded or imported straight into Blender for more advanced modeling projects. BlenderKit may be downloaded from the official website at blender.org/blendernetwork or from the GitHub repository at https://github.com/blendernetwork.
