SVGOMG exposes SVGO’s optimisation controls beside a live preview. Paste markup or open a file, then remove editor metadata, simplify paths and reduce precision while watching for visible damage.
What it does
The tool runs optimisation passes in the browser and reports size changes immediately. Individual options can be toggled, which makes it possible to identify the transformation that breaks a particular illustration.
Why it is useful
Exported SVGs often contain unnecessary metadata, excessive numeric precision and verbose structures. SVGOMG removes that weight while keeping the result inspectable and downloadable.
How to use it
Keep a source copy, open the exported SVG and enable options gradually on complex artwork. Test the result in the product as well as the preview, especially when IDs, scripts or CSS selectors are involved.
Things to know
- Aggressive settings can alter complex artwork.
- It is designed for individual files rather than large batches.
- Interactive or scripted SVGs require extra care.
