Slightly related, I recently hit on this SVG animation bug in Chrome (that someone else found):

Oh TIL - Thanks!
This could possibly be used to build full fledged games like pong and breakout :)
SVG also supports Javascript, which will probably be a lot more useful for games.
It supports JavaScript when used as a document, but when used as an "image" by a browser (IMG tag, CSS features) JavaScript and the loading of external resources are disabled.

Overshadowed by CSS animations for almost all use cases.
But animated gradient outlines on text is the only use-case I care about.

"Use case" is written without hyphen https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Use_case

Hyphenation of multi-word nouns is a process in English that usually happens after some time of usage as separate words. It often happens before eventually merger into a single compound word noun. Such as: "Electronic Mail" to "E Mail" to "e-mail" to "email".
Given how often it is used as a jargon term in software development, I can absolutely see this usage of "use-case" here as a "vote" for the next step in the process. Will we eventually see "usecase" become common? It's possible. I think it might even be a good idea. I'm debating adding my own "votes" for the hyphen moving forward.
Yes. Relevant animation elements:
• <set>
• <animate>
• <animateTransform>
• <animateMotion>
