Canvas 2D
A two-dimensional graphics rendering API provided by HTML5, allowing dynamic rendering of graphics, animations, and images in web pages through JavaScript. It requires no external plugins or libraries.
Timeline (last 90 days)
On the web, image data can be retrieved via Canvas 2D's getImageData, dithering computation performed on the CPU side, and then written back to the canvas, at the cost of performance being limited by image size.
In browser environments, particle computation typically falls on Canvas 2D, WebGL, or SVG path animation.
The developer used native TypeScript to build a custom game engine and renderer without relying on an existing game engine, with the underlying rendering based on Canvas 2D.
The final output is a single index.html file, 224 KB and approximately 3,500 lines of code, using only Canvas 2D with no dependencies on any libraries, images, fonts, or network requests.
