svgo (SVG Optimizer) is a Node.js-based tool for optimizing SVG files through a plugin architecture. Each plugin handles a specific optimization such as removing metadata, simplifying path data, merging redundant elements, cleaning up attributes, or removing empty containers.
Plugins can be individually enabled or disabled through a configuration file or command-line flags, allowing fine-grained control over which optimizations are applied. The multipass option runs optimizations repeatedly until no further improvements are found. Folder mode batch-processes entire directories of SVG files.
SVGO is widely used in front-end build pipelines and icon library workflows to minimize SVG file sizes before deployment. Pretty-print mode reformats output for readability when human-editable SVGs are needed.

-o, --output FILE

Output file.

Input folder.

svgo.config.js

Project configuration file defining enabled/disabled plugins and their options.

Some optimizations may affect rendering. Test output visually. Complex SVGs need care.
