SVG in motion
summary
Explains concrete choices: use inline SVG for DOM interactions, or object tag fallback / IMG or picture or CSS background when interactivity isn’t needed; optimization tools frequently break animation-ready IDs and groups so hand-edit before minifying. Recommends JavaScript for serious animation (Snap.svg, Velocity, GSAP-like timeline control) because CSS/SMIL can’t animate the d attribute or reliably handle morphs; shows sprite frames animated with steps and path reveal via stroke-dasharray/stroke-dashoffset and viewBox switching for responsive scenes.
