CAKE is a JavaScript scenegraph library for the HTML5 canvas-tag. You could think of it as SVG sans the XML and not be too far off.

New! Now under MIT license.

Examples

Example code

• Hello, world! (source)
• Demo page

Rich graphics

• Flashy website without Flash

Games

• Missile Fleet - a game written with CAKE
• Web Mega Pong - another game written with CAKE

File formats

• CanvasMage - a simple vector image format written in JavaScript

Documentation

See the sidebar for a link to JSDoc generated documentation. It's got the toplevel objects, but doesn't have the method documentation from the source code. The cake.js file has JavaDoc-style documentation, but JSDoc doesn't parse it quite right. Suggestions and help most welcome!

Download

• cake.js fresh off the SVN trunk
• CAKE does not have a fancy tar-ball, so use SVN to download it. Let's keep the trunk bug-free, shall we?
