Open and edit real SVG files
SVG Vector Lab is a free online SVG editor built for people who want direct control over paths, points, and attributes without installing desktop software. Open an SVG file, paste SVG source code, or load the sample drawing to begin. The canvas and source panel stay synchronized, so visual edits remain part of the real SVG structure instead of being flattened into an image.
Select an object to move, resize, rotate, duplicate, group, align, or reorder it. You can edit fill and stroke colours, opacity, line styles, transforms, geometry values, and individual path commands. Rectangle, ellipse, line, polygon, text, image, freehand, and Pen tools are available when you need to add new artwork. Grid snapping and adjustable zoom help with precise edits.
Keep your work private and portable
Your files are processed locally in the browser. SVG Vector Lab does not upload your artwork to our servers, require an account, or store a copy of your design. Autosave and the Save button use storage in this browser on this device. For a portable backup, download a clean SVG or export a transparent PNG at a preset scale or custom width and height.
The editor preserves the SVG viewBox, aspect ratio, and transparent background when possible. You can also choose a custom canvas background, resize the SVG canvas without stretching the artwork, and inspect the generated markup before downloading. Undo and redo are available from the toolbar or with Ctrl+Z and Ctrl+Shift+Z, while the Shortcuts menu lists selection, grouping, panning, zooming, and drawing commands.
Learn while you make changes
SVG files are editable documents made from elements such as paths, shapes, text, groups, and definitions. The Layers panel makes those objects visible, while the Path panel exposes nodes and commands for detailed adjustments. If you are learning SVG, start with the path editing guide, review how the SVG viewBox controls scaling, or explore the complete editor feature overview.
