Paper.js is an HTML5 Canvas vector graphics library and scripting framework used for creating and manipulating 2D shapes and paths. It functions as a vector animation framework and a headless vector graphics engine, allowing for the execution of graphics operations in both browser and server-side environments. The project features a dedicated SVG import and export engine to convert between native vector items and the SVG format. It includes a specialized boolean path operation toolkit for uniting, subtracting, and intersecting vector paths to create complex geometric shapes. The library cove
EaselJS is a JavaScript library for creating interactive 2D graphics and animations using the HTML5 Canvas element. It functions as a 2D animation framework, a canvas scene graph manager, and an interaction wrapper for detecting and responding to mouse and touch events. The library features a rendering pipeline that utilizes WebGL to increase the drawing performance of bitmap and cached content. It organizes visual elements into a hierarchical display list, allowing nested groups of 2D graphics objects to be transformed and animated as single units. Its capabilities cover the rendering of ve
This project is a high-level 3D graphics engine designed to render complex, hardware-accelerated environments within web browsers. It provides a comprehensive abstraction layer that manages scene graphs, cameras, and lighting, mapping high-level scene definitions onto low-level graphics APIs. By decoupling these definitions from specific hardware targets, the engine ensures consistent performance across diverse browsers and devices. The framework distinguishes itself through a robust architecture that includes a unified math library for high-frequency spatial calculations and a physically bas
Hilo is an HTML5 game engine for building 2D games that run across browsers and devices. It renders graphics through Canvas, DOM, or WebGL backends, automatically selecting the best option for the target environment. The engine provides a complete game development solution with sprite, skeletal, and particle animation, along with a texture atlas system for efficient image loading and rendering. The framework distinguishes itself through its integration of the DragonBones skeletal animation engine, which drives bone-based character movement without frame-by-frame sprites, and its Chipmunk phys
