# GDStudio -- A Better Godot?

**[Gamefromscratch](https://daily.dev/sources/gamefromscratch)** · 10 min read · 3 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

GDStudio is a closed-source, alternative front-end editor for the Godot game engine that redesigns the UI with significant usability improvements. Key features include a multi-pane tab system allowing multiple scenes, scripts, and resources to be open simultaneously with their own inspector and node trees, faster load times (roughly 2x compared to stock Godot 4.6), floating panels, and full-screen workspace tabs for shaders and resources. It is compatible with Godot 4.6.3 and 4.7 projects and ships with C# support. The main downsides are that it is not open source, currently only available for Windows, and still in alpha with incomplete add-on support.
