HTML can't run Doom But HTML can now run *inside* Doom! Thanks to HTML-in-Canvas! Fully accessible DOM elements drawn into Doom's own wall textures. This demo uses a WebAssembly port (jacobenget/doom.wasm) of the original C source. See it in action at - Requires Chrome with chrome://flags/#canvas-draw-element enabled. On every Doom tick, HTML-in-Canvas's drawElementImage() captures the DOM form (child of ) to an offscreen buffer, it's quantised to Doom's 256-colour palette, and the bytes are written straight into the cached patch for the appropriate texture in Doom. Doom's own software renderer then paints it onto E1M1 as a wall texture - which means perspective warp, sector lighting, and even the damage-red tint all get included and applied to the HTML form elements. It's just a texture to Doom.

Wow, it actually *is* DOM (See me using Chrome DevTools to inspect the DOM) HTML is <canvas> is going to open a new era of web UIs

A visual comparison of HTML-in-Canvas vs rasterizing DOM to a canvas texture (side-by-side below, compare average capture times) Existing approaches to pull web content into canvas are slow and lossy: - Animations glitch, or don't play at all - CSS replication is imprecise - Clogs up the main thread, other animations lag HTML-in-Canvas (texElementImage2D) lets the browser's own compositor map CSS layouts, animations, and transitions precisely into canvas/WebGL textures — one native call instead of thousands of JS style reads. It's currently available behind an experimental Chrome flag. Really cool, and I can't wait for it to become mainstream.

VFX-JS supports HTML-in-Canvas now. You can turn HTML element into a WebGL texture. It automatically detects the browser and fallback to the old SVG foreignObject workaround. So it works on Chrome, Firefox, and Safari, of course! #WebGL #VFXJS #Codepen

HTML canvas has always been a black box to the browser, but not anymore. The HTML-in-Canvas API lets you integrate real DOM elements directly into the canvas, making them fully searchable, accessible, natively translatable, and inspectable. Fuse shaders and semantics to build new UI, eliminating the need for separate DOM overlays → The web is about to get a whole lot more whimsical and we can't wait to see it 🎨

I've been playing around with Chrome's experimental HTML-in-Canvas API (I use it to create my videos), and I wanted to see if I could make text-selection work on a curved surface by moving the underlying element around on pointermove. It works pretty well!

I just released a handy little chrome extension 'clipmd' that lets you click on any element in a web page, and puts in the clipboard that element converted to markdown (ctrl-shift-m), or a screenshot of it (ctrl-shift-s). Handy for LLMs! 😊

The new o1 canvas is quite impressive: "create an interactive tool that visually shows me how correlation works, and why correlation alone is not a great descriptor of the underlying data in many cases. make it accessible to nonmath people and highly interactive and engaging"

For the last couple months, our team has been working hard on a few paradigm-changing features for HTML Canvas. One of them is the ability to have HTML elements in a canvas. Here's a ThreeJS demo with a live HTML texture.

So my friend made a thing 🍌 Got tired of that Gemini watermark in the corner of Nano Banana images, so he built a little Chrome extension to remove it. It's called "Peel Banana" 🍌 and he just put it up on the Chrome Web Store. Completely free. Chrome Web Store:
