<canvas> is an HTML element which can be used to draw graphics using scripting (usually JavaScript ). It can, for instance, be used to draw graphs, make photo compositions or do simple (and not so simple ) animations. The image on the right shows some examples of <canvas> implementations which we will see later in this tutorial. <canvas> was first introduced by Apple for the Mac OS X Dashboard and later implemented in Safari and Google Chrome. Gecko 1.8-based browsers, such as Firefox 1.5, also support this element. The <canvas> element is part of the WhatWG Web applications 1.0 specification also known as HTML5.
Among the set of goodies in the HTML 5 specification is Canvas which is a way to programmatically draw using JavaScript. We’ll explore the ins and outs of Canvas in this article, demonstrating what is possible with examples and links. Why Do You Need Canvas? Canvas can be used to represent something visually in your browser.
Feb. 1, 2012 Here is what I ended up with at the end of GGJ 2012. I've cleaned it up a bit, got it working under Internet Explorer (mostly) and put it online here .

This is a multi-part tutorial where we will teach you how to make an 8-way shooter in HTML5 and JavaScript using the Akihabara framework . Akihabara is a set of Javascript libraries that take advantage of some of HTML5′s unique features to facilitate game creation. One of the best things about writing a game in HTML5 is that it will run in any browser that supports HTML5 on any platform. This includes Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and WebKit browsers on iPhone/iPad, WebOS devices, and other mobile platforms. In part 1, we will walk you through the very basics of Akihabara and show you how to render a title screen. The Final Product
