would love to read also more on what other approaches you considered or played with before settling on the current api/algebra (which is really nice!)

maybe the point, stroke, path tower, enlist and scaling felt kinda self-evident from the beginning?

e.g. postscript has a more imperative (but also very interesting forth-y) approach

ty for the writeup, the wiggly effect is great

I miss the days when doing stuff like this felt like a fun puzzle to solve with existing tools rather than a frustrating exercise in resolving dependency graphs.

There are tensorial ways to deform texts, it would be huge if you made an article on that
