# Mimic Design

Mimic screens for the inSCADA Platform are designed as SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) files. [See What is SVG?](https://www.w3schools.com/graphics/svg_intro.asp) The SVG format is a commonly used common standard supported by many graphic design programs. Some of those are;

* inkSCAPE (Open Source),
* Adobe Photoshop,
* Corel Draw,
* Microsoft Visio,
* AutoCAD.

You can use any graphic design program mentioned above to create a mimic screen of your facility or system in the inSCADA Platform.
