How to render an image inside canvas tag?

To render an image inside a canvas tag, you can use the drawImage() method provided by the CanvasRenderingContext2D API. Here's how you can do it in HTML5:

1. Add a canvas element to your HTML file:

1

<canvas id="myCanvas" width="200" height="200"></canvas>

1. Get a reference to the canvas element and its 2D rendering context:

1
2

var canvas = document.getElementById('myCanvas');
var ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');

1. Create an image element and load an image into it:

1
2

var img = new Image();
img.src = 'image.jpg';

1. Once the image has loaded, use the drawImage() method to render it onto the canvas:

1
2
3

img.onload = function() {
  ctx.drawImage(img, 0, 0);
};

1. You can also specify the position and size of the rendered image by passing additional parameters to the drawImage() method. For example:

1
2

// Render the image at position (10, 10) with width 100 and height 100
ctx.drawImage(img, 10, 10, 100, 100);

By following these steps, you can render an image inside a canvas tag using HTML5 and JavaScript.
