## What it is
SVGcode is a Progressive Web App that converts raster images (JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, AVIF, etc.) into SVG vector graphics. It runs in the browser at svgco.de and can also be installed from the Microsoft Store, using modern web APIs like File System Access and Async Clipboard.

## Use cases
- convert a png logo to svg
- trace a jpg image into vector graphics
- vectorize bitmap images in the browser
- turn raster icons into scalable svg files
- convert webp images to svg
- batch convert photos to vector format

## When to choose
- you need a free, browser-based tool to vectorize images without installing software
- you want a PWA with file handling and clipboard integration
- you need color bitmap-to-SVG conversion

## When to avoid
- you need a command-line batch vectorization pipeline
- you require precise CAD-grade vector tracing
- you need to edit vector paths after conversion

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: active
- function: image-processing
- domain: image-processing, graphics, web-development
- platform: browser, windows, cross-platform
- tags: svg, vectorization, pwa, potrace, bitmap-to-vector, progressive-web-app, web-server
