l’d also like to mention another concept –namely, what if I could store SVGs in a browser’s local data base engine?
SVG Pattern XYZ, for example, could be assigned an ID, a long name, and various META descriptors that characterize it.
Moreover, those attributes can be associated with lower level SVG elements, such as <lines>.
If I can figure out an efficient data structure that works using David Fahlander’s Dexie.JS, then I might be able to persist SVGs using the browser itself.
What would the use-case for this be?
Well… how about providing a queryable taxonomy for Islamic geometric patterns?
I know.
Like, duh.
