Description

The WebGLFramebuffer object does not define any methods or properties of its own and its content is not directly accessible. When working with WebGLFramebuffer objects, the following methods of the {{domxref("WebGLRenderingContext")}}  are useful:

• {{domxref("WebGLRenderingContext.bindFramebuffer()")}} 
• {{domxref("WebGLRenderingContext.createFramebuffer()")}} 
• {{domxref("WebGLRenderingContext.deleteFramebuffer()")}} 
• {{domxref("WebGLRenderingContext.isFramebuffer()")}} 
• {{domxref("WebGLRenderingContext.framebufferRenderbuffer()")}} 
• {{domxref("WebGLRenderingContext.framebufferTexture2D()")}} 

Examples

Creating a frame buffer

const canvas = document.getElementById("canvas");
const gl = canvas.getContext("webgl");
const buffer = gl.createFramebuffer();
