I didn't mean it as an offence in any way. I enjoy your posts and this one is not an exception 👍
So let me rephrase: those looking to draw heavily optimized 2D graphics, especially gradients should take a look at WebGL, where the computation is performed on GPU directly. It's not as scary as it sounds 😃

No offence taken! Sorry if my answer came over as too defensive, I think I misunderstood your original comment a bit. I'm really glad you enjoy my articles, thank you so much 😀

I should really dive deeper into WebGL, I've seen amazing things built with it. You're absolutely right!
