StageXL #
StageXL is a fast and universal 2D rendering engine for HTML5 and Dart.
It provides a wide range of features for 2D games and other graphically
rich content. The WebGL based engine is highly optimized to reduce the
number of draw calls sent to the GPU and therefore delivers top-class
performance. The automatic fallback to a Canvas2D based engine guarantees
compatibility with older browsers or legacy hardware.
Some of the features provided by StageXL are: texture atlas support,
draw call batching, pixel masking, pixel filters, pixel blending,
texture filtering, hierarchical display list, sprite sheet animations,
rich animation framework, audio and video support, interaction events,
3D transformations of 2D objects, resource management, text rendering
and many other features as well as extensibility for even more features.
Extension Libraries #
StageXL provides a rich set of built-in features. Even more advanced use cases
may require an extension library with a specialised set of features. The number
of extension libraries is growing over time, here is a list of the most popular
StageXL extension libraries.

Support StageXL #
We encourage anyone to send in Pull Requests or issues that they find. We
do our best to look at them as soon as we can.
Roadmap #
Besides improving our existing features and improving performance as much
as possible, we are always thinking about new features we want to add next.
Please send us your ideas and requests to make those things a reality you
care about most. Some of the things we will tackle in the near future are:

Support for Flutter (This is happening on a separate repo)
A new StageXL homepage with more articles / blog posts.
Changing functions from positional parameters to named parameters.
Adding ability use Web Workers.

Adobe Flash heritage #
StageXL started as an easy migration path for Adobe Flash developers and their
products to HTML5. Therefore StageXL provides the same display list API you
may have used in Flash for many years. Furthermore the Dart programming
language is easy to use for everyone who is familiar with ActionScript.
