   And this version of the same map but with vectorized text instead of text elements renders as far as i can tell perfectly.

   All the rendering is in a SwiftUI Canvas view (there's an optional CoreGraphics rendering mode too),

     One of the two big things I am working on for my day job is a new Swift SVG parser and renderer.

     We found problems with all existing SVG Swift renderer libraries that proved somewhat intractable.

     Tonight I stumbled upon a SVG map of Middle Earth in the 3rd age and I just had to see how my renderer worked with it.

     This is a screenshot from my test app and even though the text is borked (expected, text isn't something I've been focused on) I'm really fucking proud of how good this looks.
