Is this something that could be used on mobile devicens? I've spent most of last year working with SVGs for mobile, and this looks rather interesting. :3c
-
The sample code runs on iOS, so at least in principle, yes. I don’t know how well libtess works in practice to tessellate the kinds of complex, multilayered content you often find in SVGs, but it might be an interesting place to start.
-
SVGs through Skia/SkiaSharp (at least the ones we generate) are all self-contained elements that could be separated as 3D-objects and then combined later in a 3D-environment as separate meshes where needed. No need for UVs beyond normals, as it would all be solid colours.
