## Description

svg-term-cli is a terminal-to-SVG converter and animated vector graphic generator. It transforms recorded shell session data into scalable vector graphics that use CSS for styling and animation.

The tool allows for the application of predefined color profiles and visual themes to match specific styles. It also provides configuration options for window dimensions, padding, and cursor visibility to customize the appearance of the output graphics.

The project includes capabilities for recording timeline trimming to render specific segments of a session and supports the conversion of terminal recordings into assets for technical documentation and visual presentations.
