Tldr We present a quasi-interpolation method that uses Taylor polynomial approximation and averaging, allowing for analysis of finite element spaces without affine equivalent families or exporting degrees of freedom from reference elements. This approach naturally handles curved domains and is particularly useful as a teaching tool.
