Use Cases

Useful for embedding SVG graphics directly in CSS without external files. Great for icons, patterns, and simple graphics in email templates, web components, and email signatures.

How It Works

The SVG markup is URL-encoded and wrapped in a data:image/svg+xml;charset=utf-8, prefix to create a valid CSS data URI that works across all modern browsers.

Fun Fact: Data URIs were first introduced in 1998 as RFC 2397 and have been widely supported in browsers since 2007!
