A basic animation test using the HTML SVG element instead of the CANVAS. This one uses the svg.js library. This library has it’s own, built in animation function that is used to make the red rectangle move back and forth (1 second period).
The green circle is moved using the requestAnimationFrame function with some coding to make it bounce back and forth.
