As documented by MDN,
OffscreenCanvas
is widely available as of 2023, so this pull request updates the documentation accordingly.I tested rendering with
OffScreenCanvas
on my own app, and it works with Chrome and Firefox.However, in Safari 17.5 and 18.0-preview on macOS, it doesn't render anything for me when I switch from
canvas
tocanvas.transferControlToOffscreen()
. There's unfortunately no error message in the console. I wasn't able to reproduce my problem with a simple test case -- the CodePen works fine in Safari -- so don't really have a good bug report to submit. I think it's also quite possible that there's something else going on in my code that Safari is tripping over.So perhaps for the moment, it might be worth merging this documentation patch. If people run into issues with Safari (or I can reproduce my issue with a smaller example) down the line, we can always open a new issue for it then.
