PixiJS Reviews and details

Social recommendations and mentions

• JSON Canvas – An open file format for infinite canvas data

  The canvas in Obsidian is as the whole app very well made. I wondered what they are using as well. My guess is https://www.xyflow.com/, which is for drawing nodes. More general purpose would be http://fabricjs.com/. Or very low level https://pixijs.com/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

  Https://pixijs.com/ and https://gsap.com/. All of the source code for my posts can be found at https://github.com/samwho/visualisations :). - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• My thought on different engines

  For full web games (yeah, I come from the web, so I try to make my family proud), I will recommend PixiJS. It has great support for TypeScript and works very well with Vite. It's lighter than other game engines, so it's better for web games. But you will need to do a lot of things by yourself. - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago

• Ask HN: Possible to make a game engine in the browser?

  Https://openarena.live/ There's also a bunch of Javascript game engines: https://github.com/collections/javascript-game-engines Or PixiJS for 2D: https://pixijs.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Rebuilding Isometric World

  That approach works well for what I was trying to archive but I am planning on adding more functionality into the website. Hence in this article, let me rebuild the project using Pixi.js and it’s React binding, React Pixi. - Source: dev.to / 7 months ago

• Consider web technologies for game development

  Https://pixijs.com/ is more of a 2D rendering framework, but powerful and very fast. Source: 8 months ago

• How do I integrate Motion and Animation into my Projects?

  Wow that site is super cool! So I see most of the 3D stuff is using canvas, maybe three.js or babylon.js or possibly pixi.js. Source: 11 months ago

• [AskJS] any recommended frameworks for making 2d games in browser?

  I only know of PIXIjs which Is more of a rendering framework, and Phaser which is a more full-blown game engine. Source: 11 months ago

• Suggest an online course like CodeCademy Game Dev

  You could also potentially look into tutorials for specific engines/frameworks like Pixi.js and Phaser, but you will then need to learn the interfaces for something like Unity if/when you decide to jump to a different engine. Picking a very simple project you want to make and learning as you go along is what I've found to be most effective when starting mostly from the ground up. Source: 12 months ago

• Which tools should I use to create my game ?

  Sure; I've used [Phaser](https://phaser.io/) before for a game jam like project and I've heard of [PixiJS](https://pixijs.com/) and [Babylon.js](https://www.babylonjs.com/) as options too. I can't really give a good recommendation either way; Phaser was fun to just write TypeScript and see my game, but it felt like a toy compared to Unreal. I'm sure you could really push it to its limits though. You mentioned you... Source: 12 months ago

• Babylon 6.0

  Not gp but you could look at Phaser or Pixijs! https://github.com/photonstorm/phaser. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• JavaScript framework for making games. no game engine

  I created my own Asteroids with vanilla HTML+CSS+JS and improved it later on to use React but I don't think you can make much more than what I have shown you. Going forward or upper than this will be easier for you with a library like ThreeJS, PixiJS or the likes. Source: about 1 year ago

• JavaScript framework for making games. no game engine

  You certainly don't need a game engine but you do need a good WebGL renderer (depending on the game you're making); check out Pixi.js. Source: about 1 year ago

• Load Balancing

  I used https://pixijs.com/. This was my first project with it and it was really nice to use. I fell in to a few traps here and there, but generally it wasn't too bad to get the results I wanted with it. :). - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• threejs and interactive meshes

  I would suggest to have a look at Pixi.js. It’s pretty fast and convenient for 2D graphics. Source: about 1 year ago

• Alternatives to WebGL to run a very simple 2D game on mobile browser?

  You probably want to look into web-based frameworks if you're targeting the browser - pixi.js is one good example. I create 3D browser-based games in ThreeJS. Source: about 1 year ago

• Looking for unfiltered feedback on my browser-based platform fighter trailer

  Hmm I don't know about tutorials, but I would recommend staying away from the DOM for any game that's real time (so, no React). Instead use a WebGL rendering library like pixi.js. You could also try out a framework/engine like Phaser, which uses pixi under the hood but provides more structure for your project if you're into that. Source: about 1 year ago

• I work as an engineering manager, AMA!

  Have a look at https://pixijs.com/, its based on HTML, JS and CSS so you're covered! Source: about 1 year ago

• Can someone point me in the right direction?

  You’ll need basic HTML and CSS skills, plus JavaScript (you can use a library like https://pixijs.com/ for it). Source: about 1 year ago

  Pixi.js has some quite clear documentation and it's pretty straightforward. Source: about 1 year ago
