The SVG <text> element defines a graphics element consisting of text. It's possible to apply a gradient, pattern, clipping path, mask, or filter to <text>, just like any other SVG graphics element.

If text is included within SVG not inside of a <text> element, it is not rendered. This is different from being hidden by default, as setting the display property will not show the text.
