I notice you mentioned drop-shadow affecting rendering in some browsers, what other properties or features should you avoid to make an illustration more cross-browser compatible in your experience?

With the newer versions of Edge being Chromium, there are not as many issues. A few properties to be careful are:

  • filter: not all filters are supported by all the browsers. E.g. drop-shadow on Safari;
  • clip-path: IE does not support it at all, and most browsers only support polygon() or url(). path is in the definition, but no browser supports it (and it would be a game-changer).
  • background-image with gradients: while linear-gradient and radial-gradient are supported, conic-gradient is not, and repeating-linear-gradient is only partial.
