## SVGO [![NPM version](https://badge.fury.io/js/svgo.svg)](https://npmjs.org/package/svgo) [![Dependency Status](https://gemnasium.com/svg/svgo.svg)](https://gemnasium.com/svg/svgo) [![Build Status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/svg/svgo.svg)](https://travis-ci.org/svg/svgo) [![Coverage Status](https://img.shields.io/coveralls/svg/svgo.svg)](https://coveralls.io/r/svg/svgo?branch=master)

**SVG O**ptimizer is a Nodejs-based tool for optimizing SVG vector graphics files.
![](https://mc.yandex.ru/watch/18431326)

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:

| [cleanupAttrs](https://github.com/svg/svgo/blob/master/plugins/cleanupAttrs.js) | cleanup attributes from newlines, trailing, and repeating spaces |
