Canvas code can get out of hand very quickly if not done right

[–] TootSweet 1 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I've made exactly two projects that utilized canvas, both of which I "released" in a sense. One contains 248kb of JS code and the other contains 246kb. That's before it's minified.

So I guess that means I did my canvas code right. Lol.

(Unless you meant 3d canvas or WebGL stuff with which I haven't played.)

I think they're referring to the memory footprint, not the source code file size.

Code size isn't really related to how much graphics data you're throwing in RAM
