Welcome to Canvas for Coders!

I’ve always thought of the browser as a creative medium. It runs everywhere. It can generate visuals and sound through code. Anything you make can reach anyone with a link. And best of all, it’s interactive. As I like to say:

The web browser is a twenty-first century canvas.

In this course, we’ll explore creative expression on the web through Three.js: thinking in three dimensions, prototyping concepts, and shaping ideas into interactive experiences.

Bring your curiosity, your questions, and whatever you’ve been wanting to make. I’m looking forward to building with you.

:)
