This is the p5 instance constructor.

A p5 instance holds all the properties and methods related to a p5 sketch. It expects an incoming sketch closure and it can also take an optional node parameter for attaching the generated p5 canvas to a node. The sketch closure takes the newly created p5 instance as its sole argument and may optionally set preload(), setup(), and/or draw() properties on it for running a sketch.

A p5 sketch can run in "global" or "instance" mode: "global" - all properties and methods are attached to the window "instance" - all properties and methods are bound to this p5 object

Syntax

p5(sketch, [node])

Parameters

sketch

a closure that can set optional preload(), setup(), and/or draw() properties on the given p5 instance

node

element to attach canvas to
