Welcome to mpl_simple_svg_parser’s documentation!¶
A simple SVG parser for matplotlib. It read the svg file as a vector path for Matplotlib. It utilizes [cairosvg](https://cairosvg.org/) and [picosvg](https://github.com/googlefonts/picosvg) to convert the input svg to more manageable svg, and read it using [svgpath2mpl](https://github.com/nvictus/svgpath2mpl) and some custom code.
It is meant to be good enough, not 100% compatible. We support gradient, but no filtes etc.
If you are interested, please check out the [sample page](https://leejjoon.github.io/mpl-simple-svg-parser/gallery/), were we compare the rendering result of mpl-simple-svg-parser to to other renderer, including Inkscape.
