These are the coefficients of the implicit curve, finding them can be done once upfront.
For integral quadratic bezier curves that is trivial as they are constant, see: https://www.shadertoy.com/view/fsXcDj
For rational cubic bezier curves it is more involved, see: https://www.shadertoy.com/view/ttVfzh
And for the full complexity of dealing with self intersecting loops and cusps see: https://github.com/Lichtso/contrast_renderer/blob/main/src/f...
> The winding number logic is usually super involved, especially when multiple sub-shapes start overlap and subtracting each other. Is this covered or orthogonal to what you are talking about?
Orthogonal: The implicit curve only tells you if you are inside or outside (the sign of the SDF), so that is technically sufficient, but usually you want more things: Some kind of anti-aliasing, composite shapes of more than one bezier curve and boolean operators for masking / clipping. Using the stencil buffer for counting the winding number allows to do all of that very easily without tessellation or decomposition at path intersections.
