State of the project? #621

Open guettli opened 4 years ago

guettli commented 4 years ago

The latest commit is two years old.

Is this project still alive?

If not. Which library do you recommend?

Please tell us the state at the top of the README.

Thank you.

I'd say the state is probably, quietly stable. I suspect there won't be a many updates. You can normally work around any issues with plugins etc and extend, but there will be the odd thing that some project needs that isn't supported.

SVG.js is probably the one with most activity if that's a primary aspect needed.

Since there won't be many updates to snapsvg, then I will choose svg.js.

Are there any reasons to use snapsvg instead?

ibrierley commented 4 years ago

I just preferred it's style and feel when I started meddling with svg tbh, and I always felt I could extend it the way I wanted, and it made logical sense. But as ever with a lot of things, it's what you become familiar with, is what you enjoy coding with.

Either will get you going, so I wouldn't get too hung up on it, just pick one, and have fun.

If you have any specific requirements, maybe post them, and then it may be a bit more clear if one is more suitable than the other.
