FAQ

How small does it get?+

Usually 30–60% smaller. SVGs exported from Illustrator and Figma have lots of metadata, so they shrink more.

Does the design change?+

No. It's visually identical — only size and readability decrease. Paths and coordinates stay intact.

SVG vs PNG?+

Icons, logos, and illustrations belong in SVG (vector, infinite zoom). Photos work better as PNG or WebP.

Is this the same as SVGO?+

Similar feature set. SVGO has more options (plugins) and fits better in build automation.

Is path data compressed too?+

Basic minification focuses on whitespace and comments. Shortening d attribute paths is stronger in dedicated tools like SVGO.

How do I inline this in React?+

Paste the optimized SVG into JSX. You may need to switch style/class to React's camelCase form.
