What is IvanK Lib?
IvanK Lib is JavaScript library for 2D graphics, inspired by Flash.
What benefits you get with IvanK over Flash and other HTML5 frameworks?
-
Fast development.
All you need for development is a text editor and web browser. Modern browsers have many tools for testing debugging your app. You just edit your text file and reload the page. There is no compilation or any complicated export settings.
-
"Native" programming.
Many third-party tools allow you to write HTML5 apps. They have their own environment and they generate JavaScript at the end. But IvanK and your app are written in JavaScript, you know what your code does and it is always faster than any machine-generated JavaScript.
-
Small size.
IvanK.js has only 60 kB. Do all games and apps need preloaders? No, they don't.
-
Incredible speed.
IvanK uses WebGL to render graphics. Your games and apps will be incredibly fast even on low-end devices. Let's say your current flash game has the resolution 600x400, it runs at 25 FPS and uses 60% of CPU. Your equivalent version in IvanK will use 15% of the CPU, it will run at 60 FPS in fullscreen.
-
Mobile devices support.
Your apps will run on mobile devices including tablets and smartphones. It already runs in Firefox on Android and it will run in future Chrome for Android. Support in iOS is also expected.
-
Everlasting code.
You don't have to worry that your app won't work 15 years from now. It will still work, just like HTML, SVG, JavaScript and many other web standards are being supported for years.
