Main Content

== Summary == WebGL is a standard that allows you to create real 3D content and render it in a web browser. WebGL is the web binding to the OpenGL ES 2.0 graphics API, and therefore allows us to run real 3D across any system with a browser that supports it and the graphics capabilities to handle such visually rich content. WebGL is maintained by [http://www.khronos.org/webgl/ the Khronos Group] for 3D graphics on the Web. In web technology terms, WebGL is the 3D drawing context of the HTML5 <canvas> element and can be used through the [[html|HTML5]] [[canvas|Canvas]] element with a Javascript API. == WebGL educational material == You can start studying WebGL with the [[webgl/tutorials|WebGL tutorials]].
