Nell An SVG Drawing Language
Nell An SVG Drawing Language by Stefan Hollos, published by Abrazol Publishing in 2020, is a 127-page exploration of a language designed for creating two-dimensional vector drawings. This edition presents a practical approach to generating illustrations for various applications, including books, webpages, and art projects. The book addresses the challenges of traditional vector drawing methods, offering a more efficient alternative that combines creativity with problem-solving in geometry and trigonometry.
Readers will find that Nell not only simplifies the drawing process but also enhances their math and programming skills. The book includes software that translates drawings defined in the Nell language into SVG files, available for free and open-source download. This resource aims to make the creation of complex vector graphics less tedious and more enjoyable, appealing to those interested in computers and languages.
Official synopsis Publisher
Nell is a language for describing two dimensional vector drawings. We have been using versions of the language for several years to create illustrations for books, webpages and various art projects. It can even be used as a tool for physics and math simulations and experiments.
We created the language because of our frustration with how tedious and time consuming it can be to create complex vector drawings. Why sit in front of a screen for hours clicking and dragging with a mouse when you can spend a few minutes thinking about your drawing, solving a few geometry and trigonometry problems and then writing a simple program that will create the drawing for you? It’s less tedious and a lot more fun, plus you get to sharpen your math and programming skills.
The book comes with software that translates a drawing definition in the Nell language into an SVG file. The software is free and open source with a GPL license. It can be downloaded from the book’s website at http: //www.abrazol.com/books/nell/
