What is SVG?
- SVG stands for Scalable Vector Graphics.
- It basically defines vector-based graphics in XML format.
- SVG graphics do NOT lose any quality if they are zoomed or resized.
- Every element and every attribute in SVG files can be animated.
What are the advantages of SVG?
Advantages of using SVG over other image formats (like JPEG and GIF) are:
- SVG images can be created and edited with any text editor.
- SVG images can be searched, indexed, scripted, and compressed.
- SVG images are scalable.
- SVG images can be printed with high quality at any resolution.
Differences between HTML SVG and HTML Canvas
- SVG is a language for describing 2D graphics in XML whereas Canvas draws 2D graphics, on the fly with a JavaScript.
- If attributes of an SVG object are changed, the browser can automatically re-render the shape whereas Canvas is rendered pixel by pixel.In canvas, once the graphic is drawn, it is forgotten by the browser.
- SVG is resolution independent whereas CANVAS is resolution dependent.
- SVG supports event handlers whereas CANVAS doesnt have a support for event handlers.
