Our Commentary ​

HTML-in-Canvas is one of those ideas that sounds both incredibly powerful and potentially terrifying. The ability to bring the DOM into Canvas opens up so many possibilities for games, data visualizations, and complex UIs. But I also worry about the performance implications and how accessible these hybrid experiences will be. It's a fascinating experiment.
