Even tho it's 8y old, Sarah Drasner's famous "SVG Can Do
That?" talk is still eye-opening for many. CSS has matured a ton since then (I'm less sure about SVG per se)... in any case it's HIGHLY recommended.

Big fan of her book as well though I don’t know if the recommended tools are still relevant.
Which book are you referring to?
Probably “SVG Animations” available through O’Reilly. It is from 2017. While many of the frameworks used have come and gone; there are a few stable concepts. If you can get it on sale, I’d recommend. Full price is a hard sell.
