Overview

Why?

  • Code for comples SVG, CSS gradients, CSS shapes/lines, etc. can get verbose

  • Saves time, but still provide customizable flexible code

  • Understanding of SVG and CSS provides infinite options

How?

Use one of the many SVG Generators that exist. Here is one recommended resource.

What?

  • Can I do with this?

    • Add visual appeal to your websites with small code files versus loading large (raster) images

  • What does this do for me?

    • Speed decision making and reduces decision fatigue.

  • What if I still need a raster image?

    • Generators reduce the file size as much as possible versus using Photoshop, Figma, etc.

  • What do I need to know?

    • HTML, CSS, and SVG. :-)

  • What are doing again?

    • First use existing generators, then we'll make our own.

    • Learn coding by making design tools. Get meta.
