Make any SVG responsive with this React component
Blog post from LogRocket
Creating responsive SVGs for mobile devices can be challenging, particularly when dealing with data visualizations. This challenge stems from the need to accommodate various screen sizes without relying on hardcoded dimensions, which can result in only a portion of the SVG being visible. By using the viewBox attribute, developers can define the position and dimensions of an SVG viewport, enabling the entire content to be visible regardless of the device. The viewBox attribute works alongside preserveAspectRatio to ensure that the SVG scales correctly, maintaining its aspect ratio even when it doesn't match the viewport's aspect ratio. The ResponsiveSVG component, utilizing a ResizeObserver, dynamically adjusts the SVG's dimensions based on changes in its container, ensuring a consistent appearance across devices.
