Just some fun information: most modern engines hate SVG. They just render them to the raster and then manipulate them like any other bitmap, making everything extremely slow and blurry. If that is mostly ok with small pictogram-tier images, it is completely unacceptable for big map-tier images. My map is tens thousand of pixels in size while at the lowest scale. Bitmap would be a few TiB of RAM. So I actually parse the SVG to get the vectors and draw them, omitting the rasterization.
