<img className="drop-video" src="/file-types/svg.jpg" alt="A logo on a checkerboard, rendered in a sandbox" />

An `.svg` opens as an image on a checkerboard, so transparent areas are easy to see.

```bash
jalco-drop logo.svg
```

SVG files can hold scripts. jalco-drop serves the rendered image with a policy that blocks them, and the raw file at `/<slug>/<file name>` is served as plain text, so an SVG drop never runs code on your site.

**Source** in the `...` menu, or `?view=source` on the link, shows the SVG's markup.
