The way linked SVGs render from within img tags is basically perfect for SVG images (which as I understand is not standardized but is largely the same across browsers). External resources and scripting are blocked while still rendering nearly all SVGs correctly. And of course, any CSS is scoped to the SVG.
replyIf someone formalizes this as a new format, please give it a new name! tvg tiny vector graphics? savg safe vector graphics?
And keep the scope as simple as possible so it actually ships! Don’t try implementing a binary format or something.
Someone did this already and did call it tinyVG! https://tinyvg.tech/
replyMaybe I'm missing something as I am not a frontend developer, but when you embed SVGs in an img tag as part of a Phoenix LiveView or even just a static component, you no longer get the ability to dynamically change paths/fills/colors with events coming from the server. Even if it's as simple as having a shape that you want to fill with a brand/highlight color, which at least for me is a common use case.
