Fish Animation

This is a simple JavaScript canvas animation that creates a school of swimming fish. The animation utilizes HTML canvas to generate a visually appealing effect of fish swimming across the screen.

Description

The animation consists of the following key components:

Canvas Setup: The JavaScript code initializes a canvas element in the HTML document and sets its dimensions to fill the entire viewport.

Fish Class: A Fish class is defined to represent individual fish in the animation. Each fish has properties such as position, size, speed, color, and angle of movement.

Drawing Fish: The draw() method of the Fish class is responsible for rendering each fish onto the canvas. It draws the fish body and tail using canvas drawing API.

Updating Fish Positions: The update() method of the Fish class updates the position of each fish based on its current angle and speed. If a fish moves outside the canvas boundaries, it repositions it to the opposite side of the canvas to create a seamless looping effect.

Creating Fish School: The createFishes() function generates a specified number of fish with random positions, sizes, and speeds and adds them to the fishes array.

Animation Loop: The animate() function utilizes the requestAnimationFrame method to create a continuous animation loop. It updates the positions of fish and redraws them on the canvas in each frame.

Usage

To use this animation, simply include the index.js file in your HTML document. The animation will automatically start once the page is loaded.
