Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) is an XML format that describes scale-independent graphics,
with good support in free software and commercial tools.
In this installment, David introduces scripting and animation with SVG,
and touches on manipulating SVG through DOM. Because SVG is XML,
it lends itself to transformation and/or generation with any of the tools
and libraries you might use for XML generally.
