Rich Interactivity with CreateJS
summary
CreateJS is a four‑library suite (EaselJS, TweenJS, PreloadJS, SoundJS) that ships real features: SpriteSheetBuilder converts vector exports into run‑time sprites, cutting a full game to under 300KB; PreloadJS supports maxConnections concurrent loads and external manifests with file‑load events; SoundJS exposes WebAudio nodes for effects and plugin fallbacks. The webgl path boosts draw throughput (2,200 → ~55,000 bunnies on a 2012 MacBook Pro) and the packaged game runs and scales across devices.
