Pts is a lightweight TypeScript/JavaScript library for visualization and creative coding, providing point/vector math, geometry, color, and animation algorithms with a friendly API. It renders across HTML canvas, SVG, and other formats and works standalone or alongside other libraries like TensorFlow.js.

Use cases

• create generative art in the browser
• visualize data with canvas or svg
• build interactive pointer-following animations
• prototype creative coding sketches quickly
• do linear algebra and geometry with an easy API
• make sound-reactive visuals
• add animated graphics to a React app

When to choose

• you want a lightweight, modular creative-coding library for canvas or SVG
• you need quick prototyping of visual or generative ideas in JavaScript
• you want approachable vector math and geometry helpers
• you want to combine visuals with other JS libraries like TensorFlow.js

When to avoid

• you need a full data-charting library with axes, legends, and tooltips
• you need WebGL/3D rendering or GPU-accelerated graphics
• you need server-side or native desktop visualization
• you need a design-tool plugin or a complete animation framework
