# SVGM

> Fast, native SVG optimizer written in Rust. Uses fixed-point convergence to guarantee optimal output in a single invocation.

SVGM takes SVG files exported from tools like Figma, Illustrator, and Inkscape, strips metadata, redundant attributes, and verbose path data, and produces smaller, cleaner output. It runs 24 optimization passes in a loop until the document stabilizes.

- 2.6x faster than SVGO on a 100-file benchmark corpus
- 14.9% median compression across real-world SVGs
- Available as a CLI binary and Rust crate
- Dual-licensed under MIT and Apache 2.0
- Source: https://github.com/madebyfrmwrk/svgm
