This week's #inkscape video is bug fixing and catching up since I've been off for a few weeks.

Big thanks to all my sponsors. So far this year it's been a flat line, but that's actually good because of attrition, people are replaced at the same rate they leave. #foss #vector #svg #developer #blog

Just released an update to Ziamath, a Pure-Python package for rendering MathML and LaTeX equations to SVG.
I wrote it because:
1) Not everything runs in a browser or online
2) Not everyone can or wants to install gigantic LaTeX
3) To allow any math-enabled font to be used
4) To see if I could

Impossible Bézier Calligraphy
(Approximating cubic nibs drawn along cubic strokes)
By @[email protected]
Given a pen nib of some shape, what composite shape is produced when that pen is drawn along any particular path? If the inputs are cubic Bézier curves, is the output as well?
The catch? Itʼs mathematically impossible to model the output using cubic Bézier curves, as I determined after a bit of calculus. However, that doesnʼt prevent us from getting pretty darn close. Let me show you how it works out.
