About

The original svg-sprite was my first-ever Node.js module and featured CSS sprites only. The 1.0 release is rewritten from scratch and introduces a bunch of new features like less dependencies (for improved Mac OS and Windows compatibility), support for inline sprite formats and the removal of file-system access so that other libraries can build on top of it more easily. Derived libraries include:

grunt-svg-sprite (a Grunt wrapper around svg-sprite)
gulp-svg-sprite (a Gulp wrapper around svg-sprite)
svg-sprite-data by Shane Osbourne (based on the original svg-sprite)

iconizr, another project of mine, is based on svg-sprite and adds PNG fallbacks for the sprites so you can use them as universal icon systems for websites (Node.js module, Grunt plugin, PHP version and online service).
