A good after-effects alternative to animate SVGs?
VPaint maybe? I'm not at all familiar with after-effects so I don't know if this is anything like it. Also not sure if it will be of any assistance as it is beta and distributed for research purposes. From the Readme:
- VGC Illustration: a vector graphics editor where paths can share common borders and be intuitively sculpted

I'm an indie dev and I've built a vector graphics tool where your paths/shapes can have shared edges — Now on Kickstarter!
Yes, it is open source, under the Apache 2.0 License. The source code for the prototype VPaint is here: https://github.com/dalboris/vpaint and the source code for VGC Illustration is here: https://github.com/vgc/vgc

You can test the prototype here: https://www.vpaint.org/, don't hesitate to give feedback on the github https://github.com/dalboris/vpaint :) Also note that I just launched the Kickstarter campaign, in case you are interested: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/vgcsoftware/vgc-illustration-the-drawing-app-of-the-future

High performance pixel perfect applications. Qt vs wxWidgets vs GTK+
I've detailed some of the rationale here: https://github.com/vgc/vgc/issues/200

Any good kickstarters for open source stuff I should check out?
What's really cool is that VGC Illustration is fully free as in freedom (as in free speech, not price) software, and the creator is trying out the Ardour style funding model where you pay to obtain the compiled binaries, while the code is fully open source available in this GitHub repository. I like this funding model and encourage others to support it.

I'm coding a new vector app (like Adobe Illustrator) with cool features, and you guys loved it! I'm now asking for your help on Kickstarter to be able to turn the prototype into a full-pledged app that will make your life easier. Check it out for more info or download the free prototype. Thanks!
Oh, this is a super interesting feature request, thanks, I never thought of that! I added the request to GitHub to not forget: https://github.com/vgc/vgc/issues/565

The prototype is using Qt's QColor, which I believe is underlying a 16-bit integer per channel. The new re-implementation VGC Illustration is actually using 64-bit float per channel, I'm not kidding: https://github.com/vgc/vgc/blob/master/libs/vgc/core/color.h . It's probably a little overkill, so I may tone it down to 32-bit float per channel if I notice performance issues, but yes, basically I'll have your needs covered :-P
