 Practical SVG is Now Free to Read Online Back in 2016 I wrote a book called Practical SVG. Recently, the publisher, A Book Apart, closed shop. Now you can Read Practical SVG on the web, here on this site, for free. I always like how Mat's book was online so now mine can join that cool club. I'll echo what I say on the site: Thanks to Jeff Eaton for… https://chriscoyier.net/2024/07/22/practical-svg-is-now-free-to-read-online/ 14 comments
 @chriscoyier An excellent resource. Are you able to publish an A Book Apart has ceased publications but has books to sell on web design and development, writing and content, etc. https://abookapart.com/blogs/press/a-new-chapter-for-a-book-apart  @joytrek @chriscoyier aww. Also looking at the site if I'd realized this was happening at the time I'd definitely have scraped together some $$ to buy a copy of everything they had still in stock. @chriscoyier This is super cool! I only learned they closed today, was feeling sad anout missing out on so many books. Just fyi, I noticed a missing graphic in the sizing and scaling chapter:  @chriscoyier Thanks for sharing this nice resource! Allow me to point out a stray backtick in Chapter 3 at the end of Figure 3.5's caption: "FIG 3.5: Each of these curved tabs is the same path used over and over again with a different fil`l." @chriscoyier thank you for sharing this resource! I noticed the chapter menu close button is not working in mobile Safari. Looks like it has focus when tapped, though. @chriscoyier is there still a way to buy the paperback? I'm putting together a list of all A Book Apart books for folks to find. |
