About VexilForge
Empowering creators to design flags that tell stories
🎨 What is VexilForge?
VexilForge is a modern, browser-based flag design tool that empowers creators to design custom flags, banners, and pride flags with an intuitive drag-and-drop interface. Built for worldbuilders, fantasy writers, game designers, and the LGBTQ+ community, VexilForge combines professional-grade design tools with an accessible, visually stunning interface that makes flag creation fun and fast.
✨ Why VexilForge Exists
Flags are powerful symbols that tell stories, represent identities, and bring fictional worlds to life. We created VexilForge because existing flag design tools were either too complex for casual creators or too limited for serious designers.
VexilForge bridges that gap with a colorful, joyful interface packed with 270+ symbols (and growing!), professional export options, and a dedicated Pride Flag Studio - all running entirely in your browser with full privacy protection.

🚩 Vexillology Basics
Vexillology is the study of flags. Good flag design follows several key principles:
Keep it simple
Use 2-3 colors and meaningful symbols
Use meaningful symbolism
Elements should relate to what the flag represents
Limit colors
2-4 basic colors work best for recognition
No lettering
Symbols are universal; text is not
Be distinctive
Make your flag recognizable from a distance
