SVG: what it is and when to use it.
SVG is especially useful for logos, icons and diagrams that need to stay sharp at different sizes. It can also contain markup and styling that should be handled carefully when SVG files come from untrusted sources.
At a glance

Strengths
Scales without raster blur · Editable vector structure · Often compact for shape-based graphics
Things to know
Not ideal for photographic imagery · Rendering can vary with fonts and external resources · Raster export is needed for software that does not accept SVG
