OpenChakra is an open-source visual editor for React

I wondery why people don't use SVG to describe their UIs. Then you don't have to invent a new language, worry about serializing, etc. SVG support in browsers is old and relatively stable.

Because using SVG for user interfaces is bad for accessibility (e.g. for users who rely on screen readers)

How do screen readers handle native applications? Can’t they just do the same thing here?

Valid point, but how many people actually pay attention to this in the alternative solutions.
