Show HN: A tool to build real websites built exclusively in SVG
I was getting really frustrated with CSS and HTML (I was originally a print designer), so built a tool for building websites using only SVG content.It's essentially a website builder that uses Adobe Illustrator for creating pages.The results so far have been really promising:
- building websites is extremely rapid
- very little debugging or verification is needed
- it's easy to create beautiful contentTechniques that were trivially easy for me 30 years ago in print are still impossible in HTML. With SVG, I can just design the page without worrying about interlocking invisible boxes.You can try it yourself — it's free, but you'll need to create an account for the hosting part.The only tool I could find to create the SVG's was Adobe Illustrator, because it enables linked images and fonts, like regular HTML pages.As far as I know, no other SVG editor except for Inkscape does this.For now it's Mac only.
