An object oriented HTML5 Canvas JavaScript framework with a well-documented API, along with tutorials and labs to cover most of the basic needs.
Konva supports node nesting, layering, caching, serialization, deserialization, animations, transitions, filters, custom shapes, configurable drag & drop, and more.
Multiple Canvases are used to create a high performance animation and event detection system. Konva also utilizes a virtual node system which allows developers to create hierarchies which resemble familiar HTML DOM structures and use familiar selectors (eg. '#foo') to manipulate nodes.
Konva allows you to draw shapes onto the stage, add event listeners to them, group them, move them, scale them, and rotate them independently from other shapes to support high performance animations, even if your application uses thousands of shapes.
