The HTML <canvas> element is used to draw graphics on the fly via scripting (usually JavaScript). This can, for instance, be used to draw graphs, make photo composition or simple (and not so simple) animations. The <canvas> element is only a container for graphics. You must use a script to actually draw the graphics.

Canvas has several methods for drawing paths, boxes, circles, text, and adding images.

Using the <canvas> element is not very difficult, but you do need a basic understanding of HTML and JavaScript. The <canvas> element is not supported in some older browsers, but is supported in recent versions of all major browsers. The default size of the canvas is 300 px × 150 px (width × height). But custom sizes can be defined using the HTML height and width property. In order to draw graphics on the canvas, we use a JavaScript context object, which creates graphics on the fly.
