README

The Taurus_HyvaSvgSprite module optimizes SVG rendering in Hyva themes by automatically converting individual SVG icons into a single SVG sprite.

Overview

In standard Hyva themes, icons are rendered as individual <svg> elements directly in the HTML. While efficient, this can lead to a larger DOM size if many icons are used or if the same icon is repeated multiple times.

This module intercepts the Hyva\Theme\ViewModel\SvgIcons::renderHtml method. Instead of returning the full SVG content, it:

1. Adds the icon to a centralized SvgSprite ViewModel.
2. Returns a light <svg><use href="#icon-id" /></svg> tag.
3. Renders all collected icons as <symbol> elements within a hidden <svg> sprite at the bottom of the page (before the </body> tag).

Features

• Performance Optimization: Reduces the overall size of the HTML document by reusing SVG definitions.
• Automatic Integration: No changes needed to existing templates. It automatically plugins into Hyva's standard icon rendering logic.
• Zero Configuration: Works out of the box once enabled.
