X11 Bitmap Graphic (.xbm)

The XBM (X11 Bitmap Graphic) file extension is a plain-text binary file format historically used in the X Window System to store monochrome bitmap images. Its primary use is for defining small, simple graphics such as icons and cursors. Originating from the 1980s, XBM files enable the inclusion of image data directly in C source code, facilitating easy integration and compilation within applications. While their use has declined with the advent of more advanced graphics formats, XBMs remain relevant for legacy systems and specific low-resource environments.

Scalable Vector Graphics (.svg)

SVG stands for Scalable Vector Graphics, a versatile file format developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) in 1999. This XML-based format is primarily used for defining vector-based graphics for the web, enabling smooth scaling and high-quality rendering on various display resolutions. SVG's scalability, interactivity, and animation support make it ideal for responsive web design, complex illustrations, diagrams, and data visualizations. Its textual nature ensures easy editing and integration with other web technologies like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, promoting seamless user experiences and streamlined workflows in modern web development.
