What is SVG?
SVG is a language for describing two-dimensional graphics in XML. SVG allows for three types of graphic objects: vector graphic shapes (e.g., paths consisting of straight lines and curves), images and text. Graphical objects can be grouped, styled, transformed and composited into previously rendered objects. The feature set includes nested transformations, clipping paths, alpha masks, filter effects and template objects.
Today you’ll see a lot of stuff about how Canvas is the future of interactivity and HTML on the web. SVG is always pushed to the side as a sort of niche venture that few people do, whereas it has the potential to be even more useful than HTML5′s Canvas. What’s more, it’s recommended by the W3C, whereas HTML5 (Canvas) is not. In this article we’re going to be looking at the applications of SVG and how you can get started making things.
