Canvas 2D Context
1. Introduce a new field at the top of

context?: CanvasRenderingContext2D;
2. Get the 2D context in ngAfterViewInit():
const canvas =
this.canvas!.nativeElement;
const ctx = canvas.getContext('2d')!;
this.context = ctx;
3. Prepare the canvas:
ctx.fillStyle = 'white';
ctx.fillRect(0, 0,
canvas.width,
canvas.height);
ctx.fillStyle = 'black';

Low-latency Rendering
Angular meets Project Fugu

Paint
Web pages need to synchronize
with the DOM on graphics updates
causing latencies that can make
drawing difficult
Low-latency rendering skips
syncing with the DOM with can lead
to a more natural experience
Supported on Chrome (Chrome OS
and Windows only)

Pointer Events
Angular meets Project Fugu
Produktivitäts-PWAs auf Desktopniveau (Hands-on)
Paint
Users nowadays use different
input methods, cross-platform
apps should cover all of them
Pointer Events offer an
abstract interface to catch all
input methods (pointerdown,
pointermove, pointerup)
event.offsetX/event.offsetY
contain the pointer’s position
relative to the listener
Slide 18
Slide 18 text
Pointer Events
1. In app.component.html, add event bindings for the pointer events:
2. In app.component.ts (onPointerMove()), draw the user input:
this.context!.fillRect(event.offsetX, event.offsetY, 2, 2);

Bresenham Line Algorithm
The user may move faster than
the input can be processed
For this case, we need to
remember the previous point
and interpolate the points in
between
The Bresenham line algorithm
calculates the missing pixels
between two given points

Bresenham Line Algorithm
1. At the top of app.component.ts, a field called previousPoint to store
the previous point:
previousPoint?: { x: number, y: number };
2. In onPointerDown(), set the current point as the previous point:
this.previousPoint = { x: event.offsetX, y: event.offsetY };
3. In onPointerUp(), set this.previousPoint to undefined.

this.paintService.bresenhamLine(this.previousPoint,
currentPoint)) {
this.context!.fillRect(point.x, point.y, 2, 2);

Color Selection
For this demo, we will only
implement the brush tool. However,
we want to bring in some color.
A simple method to implement a
color selection is to use the HTML
color-type input element that
shows the native color picker:

Summary
- Project Fugu helps the web to become more and more capable
- Project Fugu APIs could bring many more app experiences to the web
(IDEs, productivity apps, etc.)
- But: Web is threatened by alternative approaches and platforms,
support for modern Web API varies from platform to platform
- You can make a difference!
- File bugs in browser engine bugtrackers

Overview
Use available interfaces and functions of
a system (opposite of Graceful
Degradation)
Users with modern, feature-rich
browsers get a better experience
Apps are available on older browsers, but
with limited functionality
Concept: Browser feature support should
grow over time—thereby more users can
enjoy an increasing number of features

if ('serviceWorker' in navigator) {

.then(() => /* … */);
}
In JavaScript: check whether an API/feature is available. If yes—use it!
Otherwise:
1. Disable the functionality
2. Fall back to an alternative API (if available)

New powerful APIs regularly ship with new releases of Chromium-based
browsers
Some only add minor finishing touches, others enable whole application
categories as productivity apps to finally make the shift to the web
Some APIs already made their way into other browsers (e.g., Web Share)
Fugu process makes sure that capabilities are implemented in a secure,
privacy-preserving manner
Let’s make the web a more capable platform!
