Is the drawing saved on a server?
No. Drawing and SVG export are handled in your browser session.

SVG Sketch Workflow and Export Tips
SVG Sketchpad is useful when you want to convert rough ideas into reusable vector paths. It fits icon drafts, constellation-style illustrations, UI line graphics, and lightweight web assets where clean path output matters.
For production use, keep node count minimal, smooth sharp curves after tracing, and test rendered output in both light and dark backgrounds. Exported SVG is text-based, so it is easy to optimize and version-control.
Export Checklist
- Simplify unnecessary nodes before final export.
- Test SVG rendering on both light and dark backgrounds.
- Name layers or groups clearly for future edits.
FAQ
Can I edit exported SVG code later?
Yes. The output is standard SVG path data and can be edited in code or vector tools.
What should I do if the path is too complex?
Reduce control points and split complex shapes into multiple simpler paths.
