Rectangles
var rectangle = document.getElementById('rectangle');

ctx.fillStyle = 'green';
ctx.fillRect(100, 25, 100, 100);
- fillRect(x,y,width,height)
- strokeRect(x,y,width,height)
var circle = document.getElementById("circle");
var ctx = circle.getContext("2d");
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.strokeStyle = 'red';
ctx.arc(150, 75, 60, 0, 2*Math.PI);
ctx.stroke();
- beginPath()
- arc(x,y,radius, startAngle, endAngle)

canvas methods (beginPath(), moveTo(), lineTo(), fill() and else)
+ some MAGIC..

Canvas - Gradients
- createLinearGradient()
- createRadialGradient()
That's what I've got
Canvas Animations
-
clear the canvas
-
save the canvas state
- draw animated shapes
- restore the canvas state
Animation steps
(clearRect())
- setInterval()
- setTimeout()
- requestAnimationFrame()
Scheduled updates
The Svisloch' river?!?!
Drawing Text on the Canvas
var canvas = document.getElementById('canvas');
var ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');
ctx.font = "90px Arial";
ctx.fillText("EPAM",50,100);
var canvas = document.getElementById('canvas');
var ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');
ctx.font = "90px Arial";
ctx.strokeText("EPAM",50,100);
- fillText(text,x,y)
- strokeText(text,x,y)
