Package Exports
- @prantlf/svgo
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@prantlf/svgo) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

SVGO

SVG Optimizer is a Nodejs-based tool for optimizing SVG vector graphics files.
This is a fork maintaining the synchronous interface of the version 0.x
.
Why?
SVG files, especially exported from various editors, usually contain a lot of redundant and useless information such as editor metadata, comments, hidden elements, default or non-optimal values and other stuff that can be safely removed or converted without affecting SVG rendering result.
What it can do
SVGO has a plugin-based architecture, so almost every optimization is a separate plugin.
Today we have:
Plugin | Description |

cleanupAttrs | cleanup attributes from newlines, trailing, and repeating spaces |
removeDoctype | remove doctype declaration |

convertStyleToAttrs | convert styles into attributes |
convertColors | convert colors (from rgb() to #rrggbb , from #rrggbb to #rgb ) |
convertPathData | convert Path data to relative or absolute (whichever is shorter), convert one segment to another, trim useless delimiters, smart rounding, and much more |
convertTransform | collapse multiple transforms into one, convert matrices to the short aliases, and much more |

collapseGroups | collapse useless groups |
removeRasterImages | remove raster images (disabled by default) |
mergePaths | merge multiple Paths into one |
convertShapeToPath | convert some basic shapes to <path> |
sortAttrs | sort element attributes for epic readability (disabled by default) |
