Why optimise SVGs?
Design tools export icons and logos with a lot of invisible data. Smaller SVGs load faster, improve Core Web Vitals and are easier to inline in HTML or CSS.
Tips
- Two decimal places are invisible to the eye for most icons; use 3 for very small detailed shapes.
- Keep <title> for meaningful images so screen readers can describe them.
- Serve SVGs with gzip or Brotli compression for an extra 60–70%.
