EditART p5.js Template Instructions

This is a template for p5.js for creating projects on EditART.

Create your art

• Use the variables m0, m1, m2, m3, m4 which are tha values of the 5 sliders.

  IMPORTANT: Every single part of the output must ONLY depend on the values m0..m4. Otherwise the pieces will change after minting.

• The entrypoint is the draw() function which will be triggered automatically everytime the sliders change. Everything necessary for the sketch to render properly should be initialized in draw(). Find an example in index.js.

• Call triggerPreview() at the point in time when the preview image should be renderd.

• To handle window resizing please do everything necessary in windowResizedUser(). Do not overwrite windowResized() unless you know exactly what you are doing.

• If your project is animated, please restart the animation when the sliders change. You can do this as follows:

  function draw() {
      if(resetAnimation) {
          // Do necessary steps to reset the animation
          resetAnimation = false;
      }
      // Rest of the draw() function
  }
  

• If you use any libraries, include all source files in the project. Do not load any dependencies from the internet.

• Make a sketch that renders fast for the best user experience.

Randomness

If you need randomness, you can use the functions randomM0()..randomM4() these functions provide randomness seeded by the respective values m0..m4.

NOTE: You can set the randomSeedEditArt variable in index.html to any string you like in order to distinguish your randomness from the one of other projects. IMPORTANT: Don't use any source of randomness other than the one described above.

Testing

In order to test your project with the EditART platform, start a local development server of your project and paste its address in the sandbox and you can start playing around with the sliders.
