Pixels, particles and physics! Let's dive deep into creative coding with vanilla JavaScript and HTML5 canvas element! Have fun!

FULL EXTENDED class available here: https://www.udemy.com/course/learn-ht...
Leave a comment for UDEMY discount code for this course, I can generate some for you (unless the course is currently on offer for minimum price)

Today we will learn how to:
🎨 Draw rectangles on canvas
🎨 Draw images on canvas
🎨 Convert rectangles into particles
🎨 Convert images into particle systems
🎨 Add physics, animated transitions and mouse interactivity
All of that with no frameworks and no libraries using just vanilla JavaScript, HTML5 canvas element and object oriented programming. I will explain every line of code step by step as we build our interactive animated project. Let's make art with code and learn JavaScript and front end web development in the process.

Project images: (try the final effect with different images, some look better with colours, sketch versions look great on a black background)
