The world of JavaScript client-side frameworks is overflowing with contenders vying for the crown, but which one do you choose for your next project? Which one has what it takes?

Whirlwind Tour of Scalable Vector Graphics

Whirlwind Tour of Scalable Vector Graphics
Marc Grabanski

Take a whirlwind tour of the graphics format that looks as good on small devices as it does on high resolution (retina) and large displays. In this talk we'll take a look at much of the SVG API as well as how to interact with vector graphics through the use of transforms, transitions, matrices and JavaScript libraries such as RaphaelJS and D3.
