Abstract
There are various methods for animating objects in JSXGraph. When it’s a simple animation of only one or two items it’s usually acceptable, but as the complexity of the animation grows, performance can really suffer especially when using low-end devices.
This talk will discuss various ways you can go about animations in JSXGraph, and how to monitor performance bottlenecks. We will also suggest a solution for super-smooth animations of a large number of objects.
To get the most out of this talk, it is assumed you are comfortable with javascript coding and have a rudimentary grasp of how SVGs are used to display images in HTML.
