1.0.0

ThinPath 1.0.0

A memory-first native SVG renderer for iOS, built directly on Core Graphics.

This is the first public release. ThinPath parses SVG into a flat, index-based intermediate representation and draws it straight to a CGContext — no node graph, no intermediate bitmaps, no third-party dependencies.

Highlights

• Renders directly into any CGContext, or rasterizes to a CGImage.
• Flat arena IR: parsed documents are contiguous arrays, not a heap of node objects — dropping a document frees a handful of arrays instead of walking a retain-cycle-prone node graph.
• Shapes, groups, <use>/<symbol> instancing, and nested viewports.
• Solid fills, linear/radial gradients, and <pattern> fills.
• Clip paths, masks, opacity, and blending modes.
• Basic <text> with system fonts, and embedded/referenced <image> with on-demand decoding.
• Full SVG transform support and preserveAspectRatio fitting.
• Zero third-party dependencies (the SwiftPM manifest depends on swift-docc-plugin, but only as a documentation command plugin — it never links into the library).

Requirements

• iOS 13+
• Swift 5.9+
