We help developers create great user experiences through responsive, interactive and more accessible HTML5 canvas elements.
About
Scrawl-canvas is a Javascript library for working with the HTML5 <canvas> element. The library:
- Adds functionality to make <canvas> elements responsive, adapting their size according to their surrounding environment.
- Makes the canvas both accessible, and interactive - including the ability to easily track user interactions with different parts of the canvas.
- Defines a set of factory functions to create a wide range of graphic artefacts and effects which can be drawn on a canvas.
- Includes an adaptable - yet easy to use - protocol to position, display and animate artefacts and effects across the canvas.
- Builds, controls and animates many canvases - it automatically discovers existing <canvas> elements in a web page, and can add and remove <canvas> elements dynamically, in real time.
... If that all sounds a bit - well - boring, then go checkout the Scrawl-canvas generative art collection over at CodePen. Because the most important thing about working with Scrawl-canvas is that it's fun!
