DESCRIPTION:
SVG is a key interest in that area. His work with SVG has included the development of SVGSpider - the world's "first" all-SVG web site. He co-authored Platinum Edition Using XHTML, XML & Java 2 and XHTML By Example for Que Publishing and contributed to Professional XSL for Wrox. . Andrew wrote his first programs around 1984, in 6502 Assembler and BBC Basic. Andrew Watt is an independ
Every web designer and developer at least needs to be aware of SVG and the benefits of using this new W3C standard for creating and implementing graphics with XML. It looks terrific, it’s easy to follow, it’s NOT for idiots, and it’s written by one of the few people in the world who’ve been developing with SVG since it first appeared and who can teach it to designers and coders just becoming familiar with it. Enigmatic, maybe; bound-to-be-welcomed by those tired of gray coding references? Might well be the case. . The biggest thing to remember is this: As a developer or designer, you probably DON’T want to embrace one format to the exclusion of the other. Andrew Watt’s Designing SVG Web Graphics is 600 pages of all you need for understanding, designing with, and painlessly mastering SVG in your web design and development work. For pure web designers, and for designers who do development (Right-brained coders? Left-brained desi
This makes it easier for the reader to balance the formality of the SVG code with the functionality of the design.The book assumes no prior knowledge of SVG and provides the foundational information for the reader to grasp the key concepts.In addition, and importantly, it contains source code for all of the SVG images and animations created in the book. Using a heavily illustrated, step-by-step style, Watt aims to ease designers into a more analytical, programming approach to graphics without losing the appeal of form and design. The change in mindset required of graphic designers in exploiting "visual components" is explained clearly and practically. This educates the readers in how SVG works and lays a foundation for their own experiments.. While presenting real-world examples of design tasks (such as creating a logo, navigation bar, or a full web page), Watt embeds sidebars, notes, and tips to convey the strict programming portion of the proce
Tianzhen Lin said An interesting blend of Graphics and Programming. There is one thing I love about this book is that it shows you the code step by step, and you can see the variations of the results and tune-ups one sample to another. I would still expect a little bit more in-depth discussion of SVG given the fact that the author has some programming background. One thing I really wish the book would do is to indent some XML code properly. Not all the step-by-step guid. absolutely fantastic book on SVG The basics it has. It introduces you to the coding needed for a great start into designing SVG. A few header errors may frustrate in the beginnning, but with a little reading, they can be overcome.. "SVG, unlike anything you have ever seen" according to Brett Merkey. Remember the first time you used "View Source" in your browser to learn from someone who knew something you did not? Because you learned well and fast, you made a living from HTML. The Web grew so explosively partly because we were all learning that way.Now imagine the same thing happening in Web graphics. A text-based graphics format, with source open for all to learn. SVG, as an application of XML, br
