About the SVG Pattern Generator

A repeating SVG pattern is the most efficient background there is: a few hundred bytes of markup that covers any area at any resolution and stays sharp on every screen.\n\nTen pattern types are here — stripes at any angle, dots, grids, crosses, chevrons, waves, triangles, hexagons, plus signs and diagonal checks — each with control over scale, spacing, stroke weight and both colours. The output is a proper tiling SVG, and it is also given as a CSS background rule with the SVG inlined as a data URI, which is the form most people actually want. Everything is generated in the browser as you adjust it.
