Canvas vector graphics update: rich text and path boolean operation support
I wanted to share a recent large update to https://github.com/tdewolff/canvas, which is a vector graphics library written in Go to create images, PDFs, SVGs, OpenGL, etc. using vector drawing operations. Especially I wanted to show two new exciting features:
-
Client-side scripting for in-browser graphics.
It appears that there's a port of Cairo to Go which also targets webassembly. https://github.com/tdewolff/canvas
- Pixie – A full-featured 2D graphics library for Nim
-
Processing equivalent in GoLang
https://github.com/tdewolff/canvas/blob/master/examples/opengl/main.go can draw primitves but i think it would be a bit hard to do event based animation

tdewolff/canvas: vector graphics in Go (mayor update)
Yes! See https://github.com/tdewolff/canvas/tree/master/examples/gonum-plot for an example using gonum-plot. You should be able to plug-and-play to use the canvas library!
- Cairo in Go: Vector to SVG, PDF, EPS, Raster, HTML Canvas, etc.

If you're into video game dev, then PixiJS is something you need to know about. It's a HTML5 game engine that provides a lightweight 2D library across all devices. This latest update has a new package structure, custom builds, graphics API overhaul, and lots more. You can read about all these changes in the PixiJS Migration Guide. Also big congrats to PixiJS for being part of the open source community for ten years now! 😮.

My thought on different engines
For full web games (yeah, I come from the web, so I try to make my family proud), I will recommend PixiJS. It has great support for TypeScript and works very well with Vite. It's lighter than other game engines, so it's better for web games. But you will need to do a lot of things by yourself.

That approach works well for what I was trying to archive but I am planning on adding more functionality into the website. Hence in this article, let me rebuild the project using Pixi.js and it’s React binding, React Pixi.

There's also a bunch of Javascript game engines: https://github.com/collections/javascript-game-engines
Of those, BabylonJS seems pretty powerful for 3D: https://www.babylonjs.com/games/
