SVG Practice Exam

The SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) exam evaluates candidates' knowledge and proficiency in creating, editing, and manipulating vector graphics using the SVG format. SVG is a widely used XML-based vector image format for scalable graphics on the web. This exam covers various aspects of SVG, including syntax, shapes, transformations, animations, and interactivity.

Skills Required

• Understanding of SVG Syntax: Proficiency in understanding and writing SVG markup language syntax for creating vector graphics.
• Vector Graphic Design: Ability to design and create vector graphics using SVG elements such as shapes, paths, text, and gradients.
• Transformations and Animations: Knowledge of SVG transformations (e.g., translation, rotation, scaling) and animation techniques using SVG attributes and CSS.
• Interactivity and Event Handling: Familiarity with adding interactivity to SVG graphics using scripting languages like JavaScript and handling user events.
• Cross-Browser Compatibility: Understanding of browser compatibility issues related to SVG implementation and techniques for ensuring cross-browser compatibility.

Who should take the exam?

• Web Developers: Individuals involved in web development projects requiring the creation and manipulation of vector graphics using SVG.
• Graphic Designers: Design professionals looking to expand their skills to include SVG for creating scalable and interactive graphics for web applications.
• Front-end Developers: Developers working on front-end web development projects who need to integrate SVG graphics into their applications.
• UI/UX Designers: Designers focused on user interface and user experience design who want to leverage SVG for creating visually appealing and interactive interfaces.
• Multimedia Content Creators: Individuals involved in multimedia content creation who want to use SVG for creating dynamic and interactive visual content.
