WebGL
enables web content to use an API based on
OpenGL ES
2.0 to perform 3D rendering in an HTML
<canvas>
in browsers that support it without the use of plug-ins. WebGL programs consist of control code written in JavaScript and special effects code (shader code) that is executed on a computer's Graphics Processing Unit (GPU). WebGL elements can be mixed with other HTML elements and composited with other parts of the page or page background.
This tutorial describes how to use the
<canvas>
element to draw WebGL graphics, starting with the basics. The examples provided should give you some clear ideas what you can do with WebGL and will provide code snippets that may get you started in building your own content.
使用
<canvas>
element is not very difficult, but you do need a basic understanding of
HTML
and
JavaScript
。
<canvas>
element and WebGL are not supported in some older browsers, but are supported in recent versions of all major browsers. In order to draw graphics on the canvas we use a JavaScript context object, which creates graphics on the fly.
