Powerful SVG-Editor for your browser

SVG-edit

SVG-edit is a fast, web-based, javascript-driven SVG drawing editor that works in any modern browser.

Demo

Try SVG-edit here

(Also available as a download in releases).

You may also try the pre-release (or the ES6-Module version, assuming a modern browser).

Installation

Note that steps 1-2 below are only necessary if you wish to integrate SVG-edit into your own npm package; otherwise, you can skip those steps and instead of looking within node_modules/svgedit, look within your copy of the svgedit Git repo.

1. Set up an npm package of your own: npm init (complete the fields).
2. Install SVG-edit into your package: npm i svgedit
3. Copy svgedit-config-sample-es.js (in the SVG-edit project root; see node_modules/svgedit) to svgedit-config-es.js.
4. This will enable svg-editor-es.html to work, an HTML file directly using ES6 modules. Note that this file only works on modern browsers. The config file now imports the SVG edit code, minimizing the scripts that need to be referenced in the HTML file.
5. To also build a rolled-up, Babelified, non-ES Modules (IIFE) JavaScript file which will allow svg-editor.html to work, a file which does not rely on ES6 Modules support, follow these steps:
6. Run npm install within the node_modules/svgedit directory to install the build tools for SVG-edit.
7. Run npm run build-config within the node_modules/svgedit directory.
8. If you wish to make changes to the HTML, modify svg-editor-es.html and then run npm run build-html to have the changes properly copied to svg-editor.html.
