Creating SVGs

Updated

I have over 40 years of programming experience using a variety of languages over the course of my career to develop real-time solutions for real-world problems.

Keyboards connect us to the world and, as a keyboard enthusiast, I am searching for the ideal keyboard.

Many online services exist to convert images from various formats, such as JPG or PNG, to SVGs. However, I want to create original SVG images from scratch.

Years ago, I created the logo for my site brand in Excel using a variety of shapes that ultimately formed an image. Over time, I created images to scale as needed.

SVGs, on the other hand, can scale dynamically and, as an added bonus, can be animated.

After a short time searching the internet, I settled on SVGator.com. Alternatives such as Adobe Animate or Vectr offer similar features and flexibility, but I'm not about to make a career creating or generating SVGs.

I'm working with SVGator now and, after a little learning, I'll post an update.
