Compress SVG code, remove Illustrator & Figma bloat, strip hidden metadata and export minified SVG or React JSX. Free in-browser SVG cleaner with diff.

SVG optimizer & cleaner

Strip Figma/Illustrator bloat, minify path coordinates, and convert SVGs directly to production-ready React JSX.

Vector Engine Performance

React JSX Ready: Kebab-case attributes (e.g. stroke-width) are transformed into React camelCase.
Figma & Sketch Clean: Strips hidden IDs, export timestamps, and empty container layers.
Zero Pixelation: Precision rounding preserves vector Bézier curve accuracy while stripping excess byte noise.

SVG processing runs 100% in your browser using DOM parsing and regular expression tokenization. No graphics or vector files are sent over the network.

This tool runs entirely in your browser. Nothing you enter is uploaded, stored, or logged.

Quick Answer

How does SVG optimization reduce file size?

SVG optimization removes editor metadata (from Figma, Illustrator, and Inkscape), XML declarations, comments, and empty groups, while rounding coordinates to 2 decimal places to cut file weight by 50% to 80%.

Formula: Size Reduction % = ((Original Bytes - Optimized Bytes) ÷ Original Bytes) × 100

The output can be exported as minified SVG for production HTML, typed React/Next.js JSX with camelCase props, or as a CSS Data URI.

What this tool does

Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) exported directly from design tools like Figma, Adobe Illustrator, and Sketch contain hundreds of bytes of redundant editor metadata, proprietary namespaces, empty container groups, and excessive floating-point decimals. This in-browser SVG optimizer strips hidden bloat, merges redundant paths, simplifies precision, and outputs clean production-ready vector markup or typed React/Next.js JSX components with zero layout shift.

How it works

Vector files are structured XML documents containing element tags like path, circle, and polygon alongside coordinate attributes. Design software exports inject non-standard namespaces such as xmlns:sketch, custom editor IDs, timestamps, and layer names. The cleaning pipeline strips XML prologs, DocType wrappers, comments, and editor metadata without altering rendered visual shapes.

Coordinate coordinates frequently contain 5 to 7 decimal digits (such as 40.00000 or 12.345678), creating immense file bloat for fractional sub-pixel variations that human eyes and standard display screens cannot distinguish. The optimizer rounds numeric coordinates to your chosen precision (typically 2 decimals), cutting file size by 30% to 60% with zero loss of sharpness.

Unused definitions, empty groups, and transparent paths are safely purged. Clean SVG markup is then transformed into idiomatic React/Next.js JSX by converting kebab-case SVG attributes (like stroke-width, fill-rule, and clip-path) into standard camelCase props (strokeWidth, fillRule, clipPath) with an extensible props spread.

Everything runs client-side in your browser tab using DOM parser APIs and regular expression tokens. You can immediately copy minified SVG markup, grab a ready-to-use React JSX component, or generate an encoded CSS Data URI for background images.

For frontend engineering teams and high-traffic websites, optimized vector assets significantly improve Core Web Vitals, reducing First Contentful Paint (FCP) and Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) delays. Inline SVGs load instantly without extra network roundtrips, allowing high-DPI icons to render crisply on mobile and desktop viewports while minimizing overall bundle weight.

Worked example

Optimizing a 14.2 KB raw Figma icon export for a web application bundle.

  1. Upload raw SVG exported from Figma
  2. Strip XML prolog, comments, and sketch:type attributes
  3. Round path coordinates from 6 decimals down to 2 decimals
  4. Remove empty defs and collapsed container groups
  5. Select 'React / JSX' tab to convert attributes to React props

File size drops from 14.2 KB to 3.8 KB (-73.2% size reduction). The resulting JSX component imports seamlessly into React without console warnings.

Accuracy and limitations

  • Aggressive coordinate rounding (such as 0 decimals) may slightly distort complex curved paths. 2 decimals is recommended for crisp icons and logos.
  • Embedded raster images (such as base64 PNGs inside image tags) are not compressed by this tool; compress raster assets before embedding them into vector canvases.
  • Custom CSS animations and JavaScript scripts embedded inside SVG tags should be verified manually after stripping metadata.

Frequently asked questions

Why do design tools export bloated SVG files?
Software like Figma, Sketch, and Illustrator embed internal layer hierarchies, editor namespaces, undo timestamps, and high-precision decimal coordinates so the file can be reopened and edited later. Browsers do not need any of this information to render the vector artwork.
What is the difference between minified SVG and React JSX?
Minified SVG uses standard XML attribute syntax (such as stroke-width and class) intended for static HTML or asset folders. React JSX requires camelCase props (strokeWidth and className) to avoid React virtual DOM warnings.
Does rounding coordinates reduce visual quality?
Rounding to 2 decimal places maintains sub-pixel accuracy down to 0.01px, which looks indistinguishable from unrounded paths on standard and Retina displays while cutting substantial byte weight.
How do I use the generated SVG in CSS?
Switch to the 'CSS Data URI' tab and copy the data:image/svg+xml string. You can paste it directly into CSS background-image properties without needing to host an external file.
Is my proprietary vector artwork safe?
Yes. Processing takes place 100% locally inside your web browser. No graphics, corporate logos, or vector files are uploaded or sent over any network.
