The Canvas is a HTML5 element we can use to add a drawing area to our websites, applications or browser based games. The Canvas is packed full of features to create some amazing graphics.

We begin this course with the basic features including:

  • Setting up the Canvas and creating fallback content for unsupported browsers
  • Scripting
  • Drawing shapes such as squares, rectangles, arc's and circles
  • Lines & paths
  • Line widths and matching to pixels
  • Working with different types of corners and miters
  • How to remove sections of the canvas
  • Adding Canvas text and styling
  • Color fills, patterns, gradients and shadows

Then we step things up looking at more advanced techniques such as:

  • Bezier & quadratic curves
  • How to save and restore the Canvas
  • Scaling, rotating and translating drawings
  • How to use transformations
  • Accessing pixel data to both draw to the canvas and also manipulate images.
  • Use loops for repetitive tasks
  • Adding canvas animations

Hello, My name is Chris and I am a web developer and online teacher. I am passionate about what I do and about teaching others. I have started various online and offline businesses.

Whatever your reason for learning to build websites you have made an excellent career choice.

My personal motivation was to become my own boss and have more freedom and flexibility in my life. I also enjoy the technical challenge it provides and the way it constantly evolves. I built my first website back in 1999 and i have watched the web evolve into what it is today.

I try to make my courses enjoyable and try to remember what it was like when I was learning. I also believe the best way to learn is by doing and try to include as many practical examples as possible in my courses.

Thanks for taking an interest and I look forward to you joining me.

Chris
