Victor is a Gradle plugin for Android builds that treats SVG files as first-class resources, adding an 'svg' source set to the Android Gradle plugin. During the build it rasterizes SVGs into density-specific PNGs (or, experimentally, Android vector drawables) using Apache Batik, without requiring changes to app source code.

Use cases

• use SVG files as image resources in an Android app
• rasterize SVGs into multiple density PNGs during the Android build
• convert SVG assets to Android vector drawables automatically with Gradle
• avoid manually exporting icons to PNG for every Android screen density
• define separate SVG asset folders per build type or product flavor

When to choose

• your Android project has many icons or assets maintained as SVG sources
• you want density-specific PNGs generated automatically at build time instead of committed binaries
• you need per-build-type or per-flavor SVG asset folders wired into the standard Android source-set mechanism

When to avoid

• you only need a handful of vector icons and prefer Android Studio's built-in Vector Asset importer
• you require full SVG spec support in vector drawables (the generateVectorDrawables mode is experimental and handles only a subset of SVGs)
• you are starting a new project and want an actively maintained tool - this repository is archived
