In this workshop I will introduce the topic of creative coding, present some
inspiration and examples, as well as teach the basics of the JavaScript canvas
API for creating artistic animations and other creative projects such as
the following:

The workshop is designed to accompany an ‘industry-focused’ course in web development,
and aims to deliver some wider perspective over the possibilities and creative use of
technology to participants. The following topics are covered:
what is creative coding?
creative coding frameworks
the canvas API
drawing basic shapes
colors
input events
animation
requestAnimationFrame
easing functions
online creative coding communities
The exact topics and structure can be adjusted based on the course runtime and
level of the participants' experience.
