Re:SVG Viewer – View, edit, and optimize SVGs

SVGs are just so powerful. Last week there was a problem with a parallax transparent image with a filter: drop-shadow looking awful on mac safari and ios. Solution was to create an outline of the image in an SVG and use an svg filter with feGaussianBlur for a drop shadow. I feel like I'm only scratching the surface on what's possible with them. I've been using svgomg for my optimizations, but this looks to have quite a bit more useful features.

I started down a Qt/QML desktop frontend path that led into wondering how much of it I could do with just a SVG imagemap-style setup.
Getting Jupyter up and running with a connection to data and SVG tools was an illuminating experience.

I don't think it's logistically or politically possible, but I really wish DWG, DXF and DGN would be replaced by SVG. That 2D drawings for the AEC industry are unusable by the majority of programs is absurd.
