SVG Artista

What is SVG Artista?

SVG Artista is a browser-based tool that simplifies the process of animating SVG images using plain CSS code. It was initially developed as a spin-off project of Animista.net, based on user requests for a tool to create animations similar to the Animista splash screen The primary function of SVG Artista is to help users animate the stroke and fill properties of various SVG elements, including paths, lines, polylines, rectangles, circles, ellipses, and polygons. It does not, however, support the animation of SVG gradients SVG Artista generates the necessary CSS code and updates the SVG markup to enable easy animation by applying the .active class to the SVG element. This approach does not rely on any third-party JavaScript libraries, although users may choose to use a library to dynamically apply the .active class, such as on scroll into view Users can choose to generate either CSS transition or CSS animation code, depending on their preference. The generated CSS-based animations are widely supported in modern browsers, though the tool provides the code "as-is" without any warranty. It is recommended to test the generated code in the target environment and browsers before using it in production
