SVG Filter Effects Builder
SVG <filter> primitives are powerful but arcane. Build an ordered
chain of blur, drop-shadow, color-matrix, and turbulence effects, preview it live on
real content, and export the markup or an equivalent CSS filter.

Introduction
SVG filters enable effects CSS alone can't express (displacement, custom color matrices). This builder removes the syntax barrier with a visual, reorderable chain.
How it works
- Add primitives; adjust parameters with live sliders.
- The chain compiles to a
<filter>element applied to the preview. - Export the markup or a CSS
filtershorthand.
Privacy
All rendering is local SVG. No upload, no account, no API key.
Limitations
- Turbulence/displacement has no CSS equivalent.
- Very high octaves/scale can reduce preview performance.
FAQ
Do primitives run in order?
Yes. Each primitive's result feeds the next, so order changes the outcome.
Is my data uploaded?
No. Everything runs locally.
