Graphic Design
All the techniques of professional graphic design are now possible online. They all work natively, completely integrated in the web page. They’re not only possible, they’re easy:
- overflowing and overlapping objects
- twisted or distorted objects
- continuity across the entire page
- utilisation of existing illustrations with only minor modifications
- curves and shadows
- transparency
- angled objects
- Google web and WOFF fonts
- gradients
The Mesh tool and some blending modes are not part of the SVG format. These limits are easily worked around.
Animation
Thanks to animation with GSAP (Green Sock Animation Project), you can animate the various elements of the page in an engaging and coherent manner. Rather than repeating generic animations like carousels, flip boxes etc. you’ll be able to enrich your site with original motion design that rewards deeper interactions with content.
GSAP is the most robust high-performance javascript animation library on the planet, which is probably why Google recommends it for JS-based animations.
(Just) Do It All
Pure Precision
The SVG format ensures that elements are always displayed perfectly, down to the smallest detail. The benefits include:
- detailed and complex content
- exact alignment of all page objects
- extreme reliability of page display
There’s never any need to modify your source code or to verify that your site will work on other platforms.
You asked for speed?
80% time savings
Building a Svija website is extremely fast:
- build the page in Adobe Illustrator
- visit your web page online
Svija’s content management tools are streamlined but powerful to use.
Svija sites load extremely quickly:
- a caching system ensures that complex files are prepared well before your visitors request them
- the SVG format supplies page object placement — the browser doesn’t have to perform complex calculations to start drawing the page
The bottom line: the browser can display even very complex content with extreme rapidity.
You’ll never look at your source code again
Flexibility
Svija enables you to combine Adobe Illustrator files in two different ways.
Combine several files in a single page: each page can contain as many Illustrator files as you like, either one after the other in a list or layered in the order you choose.
All you can eat modules: in addition to the main page content, modules serve to include reusable content in several places (menus, footers etc.), or temporary content (promotional banners or newsletter signups for example).
Other content or functions: either sitewide or for each page, you can add scripts, HTML, or any other type of content you’d like to include.
