Difference with Babel plugin? #9

Open juandc opened 6 years ago

juandc commented 6 years ago

I've always used the Inline React SVG plugin for using SVGs in my Reactjs projects.

So, in simple words: Why should I use pixo for converting my SVGs to React Components instead of using directly the SVGs with the babel plugin? Is there an Advantage or is just an alternative?
