Canvg is a SVG parser and renderer. It takes a URL to a SVG file or the text of an SVG file, parses it in JavaScript, and renders the result on a Canvas element. The rendering speed of the examples is about as fast as native SVG.

Potential uses

  • Allows for inline embedding of SVG through JavaScript (w/o having to request another file or break validation)
  • Allows for single SVG version across all browsers that support Canvas
  • Allows for mobile devices supporting Canvas but not SVG to render SVG
  • Allows for SVG -> Canvas -> png transition all on the client side
