Understanding SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics)
Scalable Vector Graphics is an XML-based file format for vector images. SVGs can be created and edited with any text editor, scaled infinitely without quality loss, animated with CSS or JavaScript, and are typically smaller than raster alternatives. They're ideal for logos, icons, illustrations, and interactive graphics. SVGs are widely supported in browsers and can include gradients, filters, and clip paths.
