SVG or Canvas or something else? I have used SVG but am thinking of switching to use HTML5 Canvas instead. What are your opinions?
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.
Depends on the requirement, but for basic images SVG all the way! Canvas implementations have just classically had too many issues for broad compatibility.

Why?
Latest Article - Building a Prototype Web-Based Diagramming Tool with SVG and Javascript Learning to code with python is like learning to swim with those little arm floaties. It gives you undeserved confidence and will eventually drown you. - DangerBunny Artificial intelligence is the only remedy for natural stupidity. - CDP1802

Combined - Canvas for rich background and SVG for moving parts...

Do you need unstable (non-persistent) or partial drawing, buffers, dynamic scalar image generation (opposite as vector image generation), layers or 3D? Then use canvas. For all other simpler cases use SVG. None of those technologies is superior - SVG is simple to use for simple use cases, Canvas is simple to use for advanced use-cases (and difficult to use for simple use-cases).
