For a long time, there was really only one way to make interactive Web games: Flash. Like it or not, Flash had a fast drawing system. Everyone used it to create animations, point-and-click adventures and all sorts of other experiences. When browsers aligned on Web standards with HTML5, there was a veritable explosion of options for developing fast, high-quality graphics-without needing plug-ins. This article will present a small sample of drawing methods, as well as the underlying technologies and some libraries for making them easier to use. I wont be covering libraries specifically meant for games. There are so many of those I'm going to save that discussion for another article.
