What is SVG?
Definition
SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) is an XML-based format for two-dimensional vector graphics. Unlike raster images (PNG, JPEG), SVG images are defined by mathematical shapes and scale to any size without pixelation.
Why It Matters
SVG is ideal for logos, icons, charts, and illustrations on the web. SVGs are resolution-independent, typically smaller than PNGs, animatable with CSS/JS, and accessible (text is selectable). Most design tools export to SVG.
