  • Can I ask where you got your list of JS graphics/canvas libraries to review?

    Discovery is the biggest issue facing any JS canvas library developer - and after ten years I still haven't worked out how to crack that problem.

    I won't link to my library here (because: this is a Vector.js thread). Instead I'll link to the Slaylines canvas benchmark test site[1] which includes a good range of libraries.
