Show HN: WoofJS, easy to learn graphics library
- stevekrouse 10y agoAs a computer science teacher, I was struggling to find a graphics framework for my students. Because my students all loved MIT’s Scratch, I heavily leaned on it for inspiration. The result is an object-oriented graphic framework and IDE with built-in documentation, autocomplete, auto-run, and more! While it was created with 11-year-olds in mind, I hope WoofJS will be useful to anyone making graphical experiences. You can use it to make games, animations and art. One of our high school students made a version of Frogger: http://woofjs.com/create.html#Frogger http://woofjs.com/create.html#Frogger And another made a fun dodging game with emojis: http://woofjs.com/create#poop-emoji http://woofjs.com/create#poop-emoji We’re open source if you wanted to contribute :) https://github.com/stevekrouse/WoofJS https://github.com/stevekrouse/WoofJS
