Explainer

WebGL's animation loop concept powers browser games, creating smooth motion by rapidly rendering frames. Imagine flipping through pages of an illustrated book quickly, creating a fluid sequence of images as animated. This is the magic behind animations.

Additional Context

  • I remember creating little booklets as a kid, filling the pages with images and symbols. When I flipped through them quickly, the pictures seemed to come alive, just like a simple animation. This is similar to how objects appear to move on a screen: images are refreshed rapidly, creating the illusion of motion..
