WebGL (Web Graphics Library) is the new standard for 3D graphics on the Web, structured for providing 2D graphics and 3D graphics. This tutorial begins with a fundamental introduction to WebGL, OpenGL, and the Canvas element of HTML-5, along with a sample application. This tutorial consists of rendered chapters for all the steps needed to write a fundamental WebGL application. It also consists of chapters that illustrates how to make use of WebGL for realted transformations such as scaling rotation, and translation.

Audience

This tutorial will be tremendously helpful for all readers those who want to gain knowledge on the fundamentals of programming in WebGL.

Prerequisites

It is a basic tutorial and one can comfortably learn the concepts illustrated here with a fundamental awareness on JavaScript or HTML-5 programming. However, it will be more useful if you have some basic knowledge to OpenGL language and matrix operation pertained to 3D graphics.
