Canvas is a high-performance 2D rendering library for C++ that mimics the HTML5 Canvas API. It is built using OpenGL for hardware acceleration and offers a simple, familiar interface for developers looking to draw shapes, images, and text in desktop applications or games. Canvas focuses on ease of use, speed, and flexibility, making it suitable for GUI overlays, visualizations, and real-time 2D rendering tasks. Its API is intentionally similar to JavaScript’s Canvas API, lowering the barrier for web developers transitioning into C++ graphics work.
Features
- Simple C++ API modeled after HTML5 Canvas
- Hardware-accelerated rendering using OpenGL
- Draw shapes, paths, gradients, and text
- Support for images and texture blitting
- Transformation matrix operations (rotate, scale, translate)
- Anti-aliased rendering for smooth visuals
- Integrates easily with OpenGL contexts and game engines
- Lightweight with minimal dependencies
- Ideal for GUIs, charts, and custom 2D rendering
