SVGO Add viewBox

An SVGO plugin to add viewBox attribute based on width and height attributes

This plugin adds the viewBox attribute to your SVGs based on the width and height attributes. The difference between this plugin and the built-in removeDimensions plugin is that svgo-add-viewbox does not remove the width and height of your SVGs.

In order to use this plugin correctly, you SVGs should have their width and height attributes specified.
