title: Can I create a Calligraphy look with SVG?
body: <p>is it possible to create a stroke with a dynamic width with SVG? I want to achieve a Calligraphy look like <a href="http://inkscape.org/doc/calligraphy/tutorial-calligraphy.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>, <a href="http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/PowerStroke" rel="nofollow">here</a> or <a href="http://tv.adobe.com/watch/learn-illustrator-cc/creating-a-calligraphic-brush-in-illustrator-cc/" rel="nofollow">here</a>.</p>
  
  <p>Is this even possible? It seems customization of strokes in SVG is fairly limited. Even gradients in strokes seem to be non-trivial (see <a href="https://gist.github.com/mbostock/4163057" rel="nofollow">here</a>).</p>
