Web based Vector editing (code.google.com)

this is pretty cool , like inkscape in the browser .


It is cool, but it's pretty useless as it's missing important features to subtract, add, intersect, etc. shapes, and other very important functionality required to do something useful beyond the typical "finger painting" :).


Have you seen Aviary's vector tools? They've been at the in-the-browser game for a while.

That is Flash.


As long as I get my vector files, I could care less. It works pretty well. They've been at this for a while, before there were any good alternatives online to flash for this application.


Off-topic, but I'm curious about the phrase "I could care less". Here in Australia, the phrase is "I couldn't care less". Is "I could care less" an American usage?


The demo doesn't work in Opera 10.61 on Linux. I can see and interact with the interface, but nothing is drawn on the canvas when using any of the tools.


Nice - but an SWF export feature would be useful too.


wow! great find.

I wrote my own svg image editor, but this is really slick - and the code is a lot cleaner than mine :)

One of the contributors also wrote canvg: http://code.google.com/p/canvg/

which implements the svg spec in canvas allowing SVG->Canvas->JPG/PNG
