Q: Recommended in-browser IconVG decoder?

[gojomo]

Hi! Do you know of any usable work, or have any recommendations, for IconVG decoding in the browser?

I'm thinking of something that'd be able to replace inline elements, like say <img src='data: image/x-iconvg;base64,iklWRwMLEVFRsbE1gVkzWYGBqTWFlTR9lX19NYV1NH11fW2I' />, with the rendered image.

I suppose compiling @Hixie's contributed DART decoder to JS might be a fruitful approach – though of course supporting the current IconVG format would be preferred.

Thanks!

I don't know of anything that's usable 'out of the box'.

Hixie's Dart decoder is a good place to start, but as you said, it needs upgrading to the latest file format version.

You could also try compiling the C code to WASM and writing a canvas backend (as opposed to Cairo or Skia).

Either approach would require a bit of work, though.
