p5.js Block
p5.js Block
Description
p5.js + WordPress. Want to share some generative art on your own WordPress site? This is the plugin to make it happen. Add your custom p5.js code, and preview it in the Gutenberg editor before publishing it on your page or post.
- Currently, this plugin does not work with
createCanvas(windowWidth, windowHeight). You’ll need to use actual integer values like,createCanvas(700, 400). - Currently, this plugin does not include the
p5.dom.jsor thep5.sound.jslibraries.
This project was bootstrapped with Create Guten Block under the MIT License.
This project also uses the p5.js library which is free software under the GPL License.
Installation
- Upload the plugin files to the
/wp-content/plugins/directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly. - Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress.
