Hello, I’ve just released [JsOfOCairo](https://github.com/jacquev6/JsOfOCairo) on OPAM and @avsm suggested I announce it here. JsOfOCairo lets you reuse Cairo-based drawing code in web browsers. It’s an adapter, implementing (a reasonable subset of) the interface of ocaml-cairo targeting HTML5 canvas elements as exposed to OCaml by js\_of\_ocaml. This allows writing things like [DrawGrammar](https://jacquev6.github.io/DrawGrammar/) which… draws railroad diagrams of grammars expressed in EBNF. There are some examples on the interactive demo page. ---

Taging a few people that may be particularly interested: - @Chris00, I’m implementing your [package](https://github.com/Chris00/ocaml-cairo/)’s interface - @Vincent_Balat, I’m not sure who to tag from Ocsigen ---
