SVGO is a Node.js library and command-line tool that optimizes SVG files by removing unnecessary data. It provides a plugin system for fine‑grained control over the optimization process.
Use cases
- reduce the file size of SVG assets for faster web page loading
- strip metadata and comments from exported SVGs
- batch‑process a directory of SVG files via the CLI
- integrate SVG optimization into a build pipeline (e.g., webpack, PostCSS)
- customize SVG optimization with a config file or command‑line flags
When to choose
- you need a fast, scriptable way to minify SVGs in a Node.js environment
- your project already uses npm/yarn/pnpm and can install a CLI tool
- you want a configurable plugin system to enable/disable specific optimizations
When to avoid
- you require a GUI‑only SVG editor without command‑line support
- you need real‑time SVG manipulation in the browser without a build step
- your workflow is based on non‑Node environments where a native binary is required
