The book builds on the foundational concepts of vector graphics and the SVG format, and gets more advanced as chapters progress, covering what vector new media formats are best for use with Android Studio, Java and JavaFX, iOS, Kindle and HTML5, as well as key factors regarding the data footprint optimization work process, and why data footprint optimization is important.
