How to disable scaling for stroke width

Today I came across the caniuse.com entry for vector-effect: non-scaling-stroke. Using vector-effect you can control if transformation such as scale should be applied to the stroke width, too. If you define vector-effect="non-scaling-stroke" you can guarantee that the stroke width stays the same no matter which transformations are applied. This functionality can be useful when you're building interactive SVG animations.

Learn more about it by playing with the demo below. You can change the scale value and find out that the stroke width scales on the x and y axis, too. Change vector-effect to non-scaling-stroke and see that the stroke width stays the same. 💪
