Research implementing a 2D context using WebGL #60

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Typically the GL contexts are using hardware acceleration, so creating a 2D 
context which is backed by WebGL might provide some improvement in rendering 
speed.  Since rendering is, usually, the biggest bottleneck, possibly using 
WebGL to display a 2D context will give the engine better rendering framerates.

This is a research topic and might not result in anything.

I would like to know whether any progress has been made on this topic. I found
