One Byte Explainer: Canvas API

Explainer

The Canvas API enables drawing and animating graphics via JavaScript in a browser. It's used for 2D shapes, images, and animations on a <canvas> element, providing a programmable surface for creative visual content.

Additional Context

This was a tricky challenge. I managed to get it as concise as I could, coming in at 217 characters. I choose Canvas API as I use it often.
