Work in Progress

This post is currently under development. I'm exploring the performance trade-offs between HTML Canvas and DOM-based rendering while building Word Game World, a multi-platform game editor and community platform.

As I work through the challenges of rendering complex, interactive grids at scale, I'll share practical insights about:

• When Canvas truly outperforms DOM (and when it doesn't)
• Real-world performance benchmarks from a production application
• The accessibility and maintenance trade-offs you need to consider
• Hybrid approaches that combine the best of both worlds

Stay tuned for a deep dive backed by real-world data and implementation experience.
