How to use the Polygon and Polyline elements

In this example, we combine everything we learned so far. We use circles, rectangles, lines, polylines, and polygons here.

We start with the front itself. Note that we not only have a class on the wall element but on the whole SVG as well.

-100, -100
-65, 80 -65, -10 0, -70 65, -10 65, 80 -65, 80 -65, -10 0, -70 65, -10 65, 80
200, 200
<svg
class="house"
width="200"
height="200"
viewBox="-100 -100 200 200"
>
<polygon
class="wall"
points="-65,80 -65,-10 0,-70 65,-10 65,80"
/>
</svg>
.house {
stroke: black;
stroke-width: 2px;
fill: white;
}

Then we add a roof on top of it. This is the only thing that is new here. We use a polyline. The difference between a polyline and a polygon is that a polygon will always close itself, and the polyline will stay open. Note that we are using the stroke-linecap property again as we did with the gingerbread figure example.

-100, -100
-75, -8 0, -78 75, -8 -75, -8 0, -78 75, -8
200, 200
<svg
class="house"
width="200"
height="200"
viewBox="-100 -100 200 200"
>
<polyline
class="roof"
points="-75,-8 0,-78 75,-8"
/>
</svg>
.house .roof {
fill: none;
stroke: #d1495b;
stroke-width: 10px;
stroke-linecap: round;
}

Then we keep adding simple elements for the door, the windows, and the stairs. The final code for the image on the left will be as follows:

<svg class="house" width="200" height="200" viewBox="-100 -100 200 200">
<polygon class="wall" points="-65,80 -65,-10 0,-70 65,-10 65,80" />
<polyline class="roof" points="-75,-8 0,-78 75,-8" />
<rect class="door" x="-45" y="10" width="30" height="60" rx="2" />
<circle class="door-knob" cx="-35" cy="40" r="2" />
<rect class="stair" x="-47" y="70" width="34" height="5" />
<rect class="stair" x="-49" y="75" width="38" height="5" />
<rect class="window" x="5" y="15" width="40" height="35" rx="5" />
<line x1="5" y1="32.5" x2="45" y2="32.5" />
<line x1="25" y1="15" x2="25" y2="50" />
<rect class="window-sill" x="2" y="48" width="46" height="5" rx="5" />
<circle class="window" cx="0" cy="-25" r="15" />
<line x1="-15" y1="-25" x2="15" y2="-25" />
<line x1="0" y1="-40" x2="0" y2="-10" />
</svg>
.house {
stroke: black;
stroke-width: 2px;
fill: white;
}
.house .roof {
fill: none;
stroke: #d1495b;
stroke-width: 10px;
stroke-linecap: round;
}
.house .door {
fill: #d1495b;
}
.house .stair {
fill: gray;
}
.house .window {
fill: #fdea96;
}
.house .window-sill {
fill: #d1495b;
stroke-linecap: round;
}
