How Do I Learn More About WebGL?

The best place to learn about WebGL is at http://learningwebgl.com/. This site has an FAQ, a blog, and some helpful low-level lessons on how to create apps using WebGL. You can also find a ton of great content about WebGL at http://developer.mozilla.org.

One warning, however: programming WebGL is not for the uninitiated. Although WebGL is based on OpenGL, it is still a very low-level API, meaning that you will need to create everything by hand. At the end of this section, we will guide you toward some higher-level libraries that should make this process a bit easier.
