This generates a small, seamlessly-tileable SVG: a single repeating unit, never a large pre-rendered image. Pick one of five shape types and adjust tile size, shape scale, and foreground/background colors. The preview tiles it live with a repeating CSS background, so you can judge the seamless result before exporting.
What the export contains
"Download Tile SVG" saves the one repeating unit, a small square SVG file and not a large rendered pattern. To use it, tile it yourself: set it as a CSS `background-image` with `background-repeat: repeat`. That is precisely the ready-to-paste snippet "Copy CSS" hands you.
Circles, crosses, and the two wave paths are built so the shape continues correctly across a tile edge. The circle pattern places quarter-circles at all four corners plus a full one in the center, so adjacent tiles line up without a visible seam. Squares and diagonal lines tile cleanly by construction.
When you'd use this
Generating a lightweight, infinitely-scalable background pattern for a website or app without shipping a raster image file. An SVG data URI in CSS has no resolution limit and is typically far smaller than an equivalent PNG texture.
Frequently asked questions
Why does the pattern preview look tiled but the downloaded file is tiny?
The preview repeats a single small SVG tile as a CSS background, and that tile is the same file the download button gives you. It is meant to be tiled by the browser, or by whatever renders your CSS, and not opened as a standalone finished image.
Can I use the exported SVG somewhere other than CSS?
It's a standard SVG file, so you can place it directly in HTML, open it in a vector editor, or use it as a `<pattern>` fill source. The CSS snippet is simply the fastest path when you're styling a background directly.
