Bonsai

(previously known as bikeshedjs)

The art of bonsai tells a story through living illusion. A bonsai artist searches for ways to express his personal creativity by mixing form and thought in a miniature world. [source]

Introduction

Bonsai is a JavaScript graphics library. For the finer details, see the documentation (currently in construction).

Bonsai's main features include:

An example

Draw a 100x200 rectangle to the stage at {0,0}:

var r = new Rect(0, 0, 100, 200).addTo(stage);

Fill it:

r.fill('red');

Change your mind... make it darker:

r.fill( color('red').darker() );

Animate it:

r.animate('400ms', {
  x: 50,
  y: 50,
  width: 200
});
