OTOH, it's mainly possible because computers are faster so Javascript isn't a slow language anymore, and the document model is just getting out of the way and letting you manipulate pixels directly.
- kmm 13y agoThis isn't manipulating the pixels directly. Javascript is still way too slow to do that, and I don't think that will ever change. The real work is done by the graphics card. The Javascript only uploads a frame to the graphics card, makes it run a shader and then displays the adapted frame.
