Canvas2D API in WebGL
Role in this project:Front-end Developer
Front-end DeveloperContributions:82 commits in 1 month
Contributions summary:Corban's primary contribution involves developing a WebGL-based 2D rendering library. They initiated the project with a basic WebGL-2D.js file and example.html, and subsequently refined the library by allowing for multiple WebGL-2D contexts and adding support for fillRect, strokeRect, and drawImage functions. They also included example files to demonstrate the functionality of the rendering engine.
