Processing.js is an open source programming language for creating vector images, rich animations and interactive applications for the web using HTML5 technology. Using Javascript as the base code, Processing.js renders shapes and manipulates images on the HTML5 Canvas element. The language acts as a visualization library which is both lightweight and extremely powerful to create rich visuals on the web platform with ease.

Processing.js is easy to learn and even allows a newcomer to program web visuals without much effort. Advanced developers can take advantage of the interactivity offered by the language and create complex animations like web-based games or data visualization applications.
