Using an SVG Data URI
A Data URI places the SVG content directly inside a URL, eliminating a separate asset request for small graphics.
The generated URI uses Base64 because it is reliable inside HTML, CSS, and JavaScript strings. Paste it into an image src or CSS url() value.
For frequently reused or large artwork, a normal external SVG file is usually more cache-efficient.
Frequently asked
What is an SVG Data URI?
It is a URL containing the SVG itself. It can be placed in an HTML image src or a CSS background-image without hosting a separate file.
Should I use Base64 or URL-encoded SVG?
Both can work. Base64 is broadly reliable across HTML, CSS, and JavaScript contexts, while carefully URL-encoded SVG can sometimes be smaller.
Can I paste the result into CSS?
Yes. Use the complete generated value inside url("…") for a CSS background-image.
