An SVG is all you need

I agree with the author when they write:

""" In my idealistic vision of how scientific publishing should work, each paper would be accompanied by a fully interactive environment where the reader could explore the data, rerun the experiments, tweak the parameters, and see how the results changed. """

I do like seeing larger labs/companies releasing research full of SVGs. In recent memory, I quite liked this from NVIDIA:

Interactive and SVGs don't really mix, although intuitively it would seem that they do. Rendering remotely complex SVGs tale multiple seconds, while any kind of interactivity demands ~30+ frames per seconds.

Without interactivity, postscript is vector graphics too.
