Koder Vector Graphics (KVG)

  • Area: Foundation (Engines / Lang)
  • Path: engines/lang/kvg
  • Kind: Open vector format + parser + renderer + tooling
  • Spec: meta/docs/stack/specs/kvg/format.kmd v0.1.0
  • Status: v0.1 in-progress (parser + import + slice-1 renderer landed)

Role in the stack

KVG is the Koder Stack's universal vector graphics format. Designed to subsume SVG (2D) and add native 3D primitives (depth, materials, lighting), animation, mesh-gradients, and Koder-native asset references. The format is self-hosted-first (zero CDN refs), profile-additive (Core / Animated / Spatial / Full), and Y-up Cartesian (mathematically natural).

Every Koder product icon, in-app illustration, marketing asset, and rendered diagram is authored in KVG and rasterized at build time. The format is open and lives at kvg.koder.dev — third-party adoption is encouraged.
