Welcome

- [Morten] Hello and welcome to Learning SVG, my name is Morten Rand-Hendriksen and I'll be your guide as we take apart scalable vector graphics and figure out how they work and what we can do with them. In this course, we'll take a deep dive into the inner workings of SVG to understand them not just as graphics, but as full fledged web documents. We'll start with brief introduction to SVG, what they are, how they work, and how we use them. Next we'll look at the over all structure of an SVG and figure out how its components fit together.

We'll take a deep dive into SVG shapes and how to style them, and finally we'll take a brief look at how to convert a graphic design into an accessible manageable SVG ready for production. SVG is a graphics format made for the web and knowing how SVG works give you new powers as a web designer and developer. SVG is changing the way we work with graphics online and I'm here to show you how to get it right, so let's get cracking with Learning SVG.
