Stage.js is a lightweight 2D rendering and layout library for building HTML5 Canvas games in JavaScript/TypeScript. It provides an optimized rendering loop, pointer event dispatching, texture atlases, and a component tree model with layouts and transitions.

Use cases

• build a 2d html5 canvas game
• create interactive graphics in the browser
• make a cross-platform mobile web game
• render sprites with texture atlases
• handle pointer/touch events on game components
• animate and layout 2d game scenes

When to choose

• you want a lightweight 2D canvas game engine without heavy dependencies
• you need simple layout, transitions, and pointer event handling for 2D games
• you target both desktop and mobile browsers from one codebase

When to avoid

• you need 3D rendering or WebGL features
• you want a full-featured engine with physics, audio, and asset pipelines built in
• you need native mobile or desktop app packaging
