What is Clicked?

  1. document.addEventListener('click', e => console.log(e.target))

Try that one in your console and then click on stuff. I use that frequently when debugging…

Cut Hole in Canvas (eraser)

  1. document.body.style.background = 'gray';
  2. const canvas = document.createElement('canvas');
  3. const c = canvas.getContext('2d');
  4.  
  5. canvas.width = 300;
  6. canvas.height = 300;
  7.  
  8. c.fillStyle='rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.8)'
  9. c.fillRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);
  10.  
  11. c.globalCompositeOperation = 'destination-out';
  12. c.fillStyle = 'black';
  13. c.fillRect(100, 100, 150, 50);
  14.  
  15. document.body.appendChild(canvas);

destination-out is great for creating masks and eraser tools – things like that – in this case a 150×50 rectangle is cut out of a red background.
