5. Conclusion

This tutorial introduced the SVG image format and described the very practical reasons why such a format was created and is needed to improve the web experience. We covered the basic structure of a SVG document and looked at a couple simple SVG shapes (the rectangle and the circle). A contrived example was used to emphasize the benefits of a scalable vector graphical format over existing raster graphics.

I've really only covered the very minimal basics of SVG in this tutorial. In future editions, I'll be building upon this foundation and covering more interesting/motivating features of SVG. For further reading, tutorials at SVG Basics are an excellent resource.
