I see Adobe Illustrator has monthly fee. is there free version for students, beginners? or Can I buy it with one time payment? I don't get it why does it cost monthly. isn't it something I can buy on amazon and install it like other softwares? Sorry for the dumb question. Thank you!

After a certain adobe version, I believe 6, they stopped selling the standalone application and starting selling it only as a subscription. If I recall correctly, the subscription isn't that much and it would be worth it to have the newest version. However you could probably find an older version to purchase somewhere. Perhaps even craigslist.

You'll see this more and more, and it sucks, you can't buy adobe anymore, mostly due to the pirated copies every one had years ago. So now you can "lease" adobe suite, I think it's around $20-$50 a month. If you want a solid alternative that costs $100 and I think there is a 20% discount for Treehouse students, try Sketch. Its solid, and made for web design. Its not as powerful as adobe, but for most web design it works well. Here is a link to their site.

Like Jacob suggested, Sketch is a great option! Another great option is Affinity Designer, which also has a photo counterpart that works like photoshop! That's what I use, and they work great. Affinity Designer is in beta on windows 10, but will soon be released according to the creator, and Affinity Photo will soon come after it. So if you're on Windows 10 Affinity would still be a great option.

I find Adobe products slow to use, difficult to learn (especially as the suite of programs differ enough to be annoying). So I use Affinity Designer and Affinity Photo. It's a great suite of design tools and only costs 50 or so. And that's not per month, that's for the program. See -gb/

Affinity is so easy to use, has great tools for web design and graphic design and is really quick. The only thing I can't do is product mockups as Adobe has a special tool for wrapping artwork around objects but apart from that, it's brilliant.
