Build interactive 2D maps, game boards, pixel editors, minimaps, and large data grids with a renderer-agnostic TypeScript engine. Canvas Tile Engine supports Canvas2D, WebGL, React, React Native (Skia), and server-side rendering, providing a unified API with pan/zoom, layers, sprites, viewport culling, and high-performance rendering across platforms.
Does it handle really large grids like 10k x 10k without choking, and what happens if I need to swap renderers later in the project?
Rendered a pretty large tile map with layers and pan/zoom running smoothly on both Canvas2D and WebGL with no API changes needed. The renderer-agnostic approach is genuinely useful for cross-platform work.
Been messing around with the viewport culling on a pretty big map and it's holding up really well, no dropped frames even when zooming fast. The unified API across Canvas2D and WebGL made switching renderers way less painful than I expected.
The renderer-agnostic API is a really smart move, makes swapping between Canvas2D and WebGL painless. Caught me off guard how smooth the pan and zoom felt even on a pretty dense grid.
Finally a tiles API that doesn't lock you into canvas2d. The pan/zoom layer culling feels really solid and switching to WebGL was just a one-line change.
