    JCanvas: As we know that canvas is used to draw graphics with the help of javascript. In this there are certain properties to draw a line, circle, box, etc but canvas does not support event handlers.
    JCanvas is a javascript library which is written in JQuery, it wraps around the HTML and and add new featues, capabilities like animation, drag-drop, events handlers, etc to it. Also we can extend JCanvas with our own methods and properties using extend() function.

     

    Example:

    HTML:

    <canvas width="300" height="150" style="border:1px solid #000"></canvas>

     

    SCRIPT:

             

    $("canvas").drawArc({
                  draggable: true,
                  fillStyle: "green",
                  x: 100, y: 100,
                  radius: 50
                });

     

     

    Also, we have to include the the attached jcanvas.min.js and jquery.min.js file to make it work.

    There are many supported events in Jcanvas:

    drawRect()
    drawArc()
    drawBezier()
    drawVector()
    drawGraph()
    drawPolygon()
    drawImage()
    drawText()
    drawEllipse()
    drawLine()
    drawQuadratic()
    animateLayer()
    drawSlice()
     

    Also many event handlers:

    click
    dblclick
    dragstart
    drag
    dragstop
    touchstart
    touchend
    touchmove
    mousedown
    mouseup
    mousemove
    mouseover
    mouseout

    This is will make your Canvas/Graphics much more interactive and compatible with the events.
