## What it is
A curated list of HTML5 Canvas resources including examples, libraries, articles, talks, and tutorials. It serves as a reference directory for learning and building graphics, animations, and visual effects with the Canvas API.

## When to choose
- you want a curated starting point for learning HTML5 Canvas

## When to avoid
- you need a runnable library or framework rather than a link list
- you need WebGL/Three.js resources specifically rather than Canvas 2D
- you need maintained code, since the repo is a list of external links

- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: graphics, animation, image-processing, developer-tools
- domain: web-development, frontend, graphics, tutorials, awesome-lists
