    Do you want the TeX code to be converted to svg in the browser at rendering time or are you ok with converting the figures to svg beforehand and including them in your html files?

    For the former I would look at TikZjaX (https://github.com/kisonecat/tikzjax) which takes tikz code and convert it to svg on the fly, just like MathJaX converting TeX equations. It may be slow, though, especially for complicated plots.

    If you are OK with creating the figures beforehand and serving the generated svg, there are several options: Asymptote (https://asymptote.sourceforge.io/) can generate svg and even html files that you can embed in an iframe. You can convert any TeX figure to svg with dvisvgm (play with the --font-format option).

    This was my first thought, but the last comment in that page linked above is promising. Someone has the real tikz running in the web browser, rendering to svg: https://github.com/kisonecat/tikzjax It might a simple matter of translating tikz-fenced code blocks to the appropriate script tag and letting that script do its thing.
