SVGcode
SVGcode turns color raster images into color SVG vector graphics. It accepts JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, and AVIF files, and uses full-color tracing with SVG as its output format. The conversion engine is a WebAssembly version of Potrace; SVGcode then optimizes the resulting files with SVGO. It runs on the web as a Progressive Web App and can be installed on Windows, Android, and ChromeOS. The app uses browser capabilities including the File System Access API, Async Clipboard API, File Handling API, and Window Controls Overlay customization. SVGcode is free to use, and the project says no login is needed to use it or save SVGs. Its Free plan is free. The source repository lists the GNU General Public License v2.0. It suits people looking for a web-based or installable tool to convert bitmap images to SVG without an account.
