Speaker Spotlight: Using scalable vector graphics (SVGs) with Jacob Arriola

SVGs provide designers, developers and users with an array of benefits including performance, styling and animations. In Jacob Arriola of Zeek Interactive’s talk, theme developers will walk away with the benefits of using SVGs in their themes, understanding the different approaches to rendering SVGs, and adding some styles and animation to help bring sites and applications to life.

SVG support is now widely accepted across browsers. Despite the wide support and its many benefits to the user, designer and developer, usage doesn’t seem to be very widespread. Jacob will show the ease of getting started with bringing in SVGs into a WordPress theme. Users will see live demonstrations of adding SVGs to their themes in a multitude of ways and will have enough information to take immediate action in their existing projects.

Don’t miss Jacob in the Dwarf Star at 2 PM on July 9.

Jacob is a front-end developer and WordPress developer at Zeek Interactive. He’s been building custom themes for over 5 years and has a joy for sharing new ideas and collaborating with others. He takes pride in his ability to communicate complex items with passion and enthusiasm.
