I could imagine this been used, once it's more mature, as a Weasy Print (html to PDF) replacement. (assuming it ends up supporting PDF's or adding a different svg2pdf convertor)

There are countless use cases where a system needs to generate something printable, such as a PDF report, ticket, gift certificate, etc. And generating something that looks great from a system that is good at generating html can be a challenge. Being able to convert a rendered html page to a vector graphic opens up a lot of options.

I already have an AWS Lambda function running Weasy Print for when I need simple PDF generated from a webapp. It'd be great to be able to switch to something like this that does a better job at rendering HTML, and therefore having the option to make more beautiful PDF's.
