Canvas-ing the Web

Built a live dashboard for my Claude agent sessions, but instead of charts it is a pixel forest. Five project clearings, each with a familiar and a workstation. Each active session spawns a Pikka that moves to its project's clearing and carries a flower coloured by what it is doing. Workstations throw sparks when agents are busy. 500 lines of Canvas API, 100% awesomeness.

Một lập trình viên đã tái tạo thành công tựa game arcade kinh điển Asteroids (1979) chỉ bằng HTML5 thuần, JavaScript, Canvas API và Web Audio. Đây là một dự án học tập cá nhân, không sử dụng bất kỳ framework hay thư viện nào!

Anyone got ideas on how to fade out a canvas - slowly?
The simple method is to – instead of clearing the canvas between draw calls, filling it with a transparent black rectangle. But with very low opacity settings, this leaves dark gray color areas instead of eventually fading to black.
It just looks ugly, so I tried another strategy here:

I made a small but satisfying creative thing, a sketch of hills using Canvas API inspired by this weekend's linocut sights in Ōtautahi
