SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) is a file format designed for displaying scalable vector graphics on the web. Vector graphics store images, shapes, lines, and colors using mathematical equations based on grid points, as opposed to pixel-based raster images such as JPEG or PNG. Due to the nature of SVG files, web designers can adjust their size without losing quality, making them a resolution-independent format suitable for adapting graphics to any screen size.
An SVG image retains its quality on both a large external monitor and on mobile, ensuring a crisp and consistent visual experience for all site visitors no matter what device or screen size they use.
SVG files are also very flexible and easy to edit, making them an ideal choice for interactive elements such as icons, logos or charts. SVG can be animated and styled using CSS, allowing you to create dynamic visual effects without having to use large animated files.
In solidpixels, you can upload and use SVG images to your website. It is the preferred option due to the data size and the positive impact on page load speed.
