There's a lot of reasonable argument put behind the concept that we will use SVG more and more on the web.
You're saying that WebRenderer should work for faster for anything but vector graphics.
Is there a risk that it's optimizing for todays/yesterdays use cases?
- pcwalton 11y agoEh, I'm skeptical. :) IMO, SVG has serious ergonomic and performance issues that make it unlikely that we'll see a large-scale transition to it anytime soon. Not to mention that vector graphics are not really what you want for mobile apps: the proven framework is something like Core Animation, which CSS is much closer to than SVG. But I don't really want to debate this here, as it's somewhat off-topic. And there are only so many ways to draw a button, SVG or not. WebRender is really good at drawing buttons. So there's a possibility that we could use the same technique, just extended, for SVG.
