Purchase options and add-ons

SVG is extremely powerful, with its reduced HTTP requests and crispness on any display. It becomes increasingly more interesting as you explore its capabilities for responsive animation and performance boons. When you animate SVG, you must be aware of normal image traits like composition, color, implementation, and optimization. But when you animate, it increases the complexity of each of these factors exponentially.

This practical book takes a deep dive into how you can to solve these problems with stability, performance, and creativity in mind.

  • Learn how to make SVG cross-browser compatible, backwards compatible, optimized, and responsive
  • Plan and debug animation
  • Make a complex animation responsive, as many sites are responsive
  • Profile each animation technique in terms of performance so that you know what you're getting in to with each library or native technology

Bad print quality!

Bad print quality!
Did I get a bootleg copy? For a book about scalable vector graphics it appears as if none were used by the printers of this book. I haven’t yet read it so this review is in no way a reflection of the book’s contents. But for near $40 I’d expect the images to not look like they were printed by a home inkjet printer. Still excited to read this, but pretty bummed. Guess I’ll only be purchasing eBooks from O’Reilly in the future. I can’t give an accurate star rating so I’m the interest of not dinging the author for something likely out of her control I’m leaving 5 stars for now.
Thank you for your feedback

I met Sarah at a css Meetup in Arizona a few years ago where she presented the power of SVG. I was thrilled to finally find the time to go over her book. As expected it's an outstanding guide about getting into the SVG web development world. As a front end developer who strongly relies on CSS animations I can now expand my creations and take on a new dimension of creativity. There's so much more to be said about this book but if you are a developer and wondering if this is the right book to get you started, and even take you beyond, with SVG then have no doubts and jump on it.

P.s. The book has a ton of codepen examples so if you go with the Kindle version you can directly click on the links and open them in your browser.

Thank you, Sarah, for sharing all this marvelous knowledge with us.

Starting you off making simple shapes and learning the markup, by Chapter 13, you are making cool ray guns with unlimited possibilities. By Chapter 15, SVG learns how to use said ray gun on you. By Chapter 17, you reach full SVG self-awareness and sentient SVG beings able to make 5-star Amazon Reviews autonomously.

I have been coding for close to 40 years but I have the graphic design IQ of a 6 year old. I cannot recommend SVG Animations enough; it's a mother lode of design gems conveyed in simple to understand principles that make sense. She systematically goes through the once foreign concepts of morphing, revealing, style, cues, interactions and conservation of space with jaw-dropping operational examples. Amazing.

Going to assume the lack of reviews means everyone bought this book, consumed it, and is on CodePen having a blast.

This is the manual you want to guide you through what would take a million CSS Tricks, Stack Overlfow, Google searches, and CodePen post-mortems.

Grab a copy, secure a version of Illustrator, and when in doubt reference one of Sarah's Youtube talks or CSS Tricks... cecause you will still end up there, you always do.

En este libro crees que vas a aprender sobre animaciones en SVG y sus usos pero al final terminas con una magistral cátedra sobre la mejor forma de darle vida a las interacciones de los usuarios y como SVG es una herramienta sumamente poderosa y a la vez accesible, escrito de forma sencilla y comprensible con una cantidad impresionante de bellos ejemplos y sobretodo formas de incorpor efectos parecidos a tus páginas en producción

Reviewed in Spain on March 11, 2019
El libro es una pasada, trata un tema muy específico que tiene muchísimas aplicaciones.

Me da pena ponerle solo 3 estrellas, pero no le puedo poner mas ya que la calidad de impresión es horrible: parece que han impreso las hojas con una impresora de inyección de tinta de las baratas, y, tratándose de un libro sobre gráficos, me parece un fallo imperdonable.

La edición digital seguro que está mejor.
