Design people will use their editor of choice - Illustrator/Sketch/Inkscape/etc. Some coders might tweak things using that software, but usually I'll edit the SVG directly, especially if there's interactivity.
For complicated shapes/curves I'll sometimes run it through an online editor to help visualize, this is a good one: https://yqnn.github.io/svg-path-editor/ https://yqnn.github.io/svg-path-editor/
- jarek-foksa 3y agoThere is also Boxy SVG (https://boxy-svg.com https://boxy-svg.com) which combines both designer and developer oriented functionality and uses SVG as its native file format. Unlike Illustrator/Sketch/Inkscape it can also create and manipulate SVG animation elements (https://boxy-svg.com/blog/21 https://boxy-svg.com/blog/21) - a very powerful feature which is now supported by all major browsers.
- sampullman 3y agoLooks great! I vaguely recall checking it out at some point but must have forgotten to bookmark. It seems like a fairly straightforward mapping of UI -> SVG features, which must have taken a ton of effort. I'll have to take a closer look at the animation tool, I've often wondered if web technologies would ever get close to Flash's capabilities.
- allan_s 3y agoI dont mean to be rude but is there a reason why firefox is not supported ? Is it " it will never work there because the mandatory feature X is missing and will never be implemented in firefox " or "some features are broken " in which case a disclaimer "we dont test in firefox so use at your own peril" would be great :)
- jarek-foksa 3y agoFirefox support is tracked on https://boxy-svg.com/ideas/227/firefox-browser-support https://boxy-svg.com/ideas/227/firefox-browser-support, I think it will be added next year.
