Hi tobium,

the Canvas API is a Java API for HTML5 Canvas. It's got nothing to do with JavaFX. It's not our intention to make JavaFX run in a browser. We've got our own APIs.

There was once a JavaFX implementation on top of my Canvas API implemented by Oracle (see the demo here http://xelfi.cz/fishsim/), but the project was killed and it's no longer maintained (https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8091898). You could try to get it to run, but it's not a trivial task.

But you're right, there should be at least a bit of documentation how to use the Canvas API, and I'll try to fix that.

Thanks
