Creation of abstract art and animations on JavaScript using Canvas-Sketch library (from Matt DesLauriers) and node.js
Every 'sketch-#.js' file is written in JavaScript, they can't be executed unless there's a nodejs server running.
Here are some PNG and MP4 files representing the final output of the written code.
sketch-04-square.mp4
sketch-05.mp4
How to run each sketch :
1- Install a terminal on you windows pc (In my case, I use ConEmu or Git). If you're on a MacOS environment, they already come with a terminal so no need to install one.
-
Install NodeJS on your computer.
-
NodeJs comes with an nmp package for JavaScript, you can check by writing the following command on the terminal :
npm -v -
Install the 'canvas-sketch' library, in order to install it, run the following command on the terminal :
npm install canvas-sketch-cli -g -
Install 'canvas-sketch-util', in order to install it, run the following command on the terminal :
npm install canvas-sketch-util -
Now everything is ready to open a sketch. To open a sketch, make sure the file is saved on a folder and run the following command on the terminal :
canvas-sketch sketch-#.js(# is for the number of the sketch file)For example : canvas-sketch sketch-02.js
-
You'll se a server running http address, you can clip it on a browser and you'll be able to see the sketch.
I'll be soon adding new ones... Have fun!
