Animation Exercise
Initial Setup
Add the canvas
element to your HTML.
<canvas id="canvas"></canvas>
Setup the canvas
const canvas = document.getElementById('canvas');
const ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');
ctx.canvas.width = 400;
ctx.canvas.height = 100;
ctx.scale(20, 20);
Create the Canvas class
class Canvas {
constructor(ctx) {
this.ctx = ctx;
// Create a new piece when the canvas is initialized
this.piece = new Piece(this.ctx);
}
}
Create the Piece class
class Piece {
constructor(ctx) {
this.ctx = ctx
this.x = 1; // start position
this.y = 1; // start position
this.color = 'orange';
// Render the piece on initialisation
this.render();
}
render() {
this.ctx.fillStyle = this.color;
this.ctx.fillRect(this.x, this.y, 1, 1);
}
}
Initialise the canvas and pass in the context
let board = new Canvas(ctx);
