#Welcome to the jsGameWiki! This is the brain for game programming with html5/canvas/javascript.

I'm trying to structure helpful sources like eBooks, videos, blogs, articles, presentations...

Structure

Part I - Content directly relevant to game programming with html5/canvas/javascript
i.e. tutorials, blog posts, engines, etc.

Part II - Content related to web-development which can be useful in a game programming context
i.e. html5/canvas articles, javascript performance, etc.

Other Sources

A starting point for good javascript resources is bebraw's sensational jswiki.
(Actually I see jsGameWiki as an addition to jsWiki for game programming topics)

A second project I'm running is webdevresources, a collection of links on web-development in general.
