+<div class="summary">
+<p><span class="seoSummary">WebGL (Web Graphics Library) is a JavaScript API for rendering high-performance interactive 3D and 2D graphics within any compatible web browser without the use of plug-ins. WebGL does so by introducing an API that closely conforms to OpenGL ES 2.0 that can be used in HTML5 {{HTMLElement("canvas")}} elements.</span> This conformance makes it possible for the API to take advantage of hardware graphics acceleration provided by the user's device.</p>
+</div>
+
+<p>Support for WebGL is present in <a href="/en-US/Firefox" title="Firefox 4 for developers">Firefox</a> 4+, <a href="https://www.google.com/chrome/">Google Chrome</a> 9+, <a href="https://www.opera.com/">Opera</a> 12+, <a href="https://www.apple.com/safari/">Safari </a>5.1+, <a href="http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/browser-ie">Internet Explorer</a> 11+, and <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/edge">Microsoft Edge</a> build 10240+; however, the user's device must also have hardware that supports these features.</p>
+
+<p>The {{anch("WebGL 2")}} API introduces support for much of the OpenGL ES 3.0 feature set; it's provided through the {{domxref("WebGL2RenderingContext")}} interface.</p>
+
+<p>The {{HTMLElement("canvas")}} element is also used by the <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/API/Canvas_API">Canvas API</a> to do 2D graphics on web pages.</p>

+
+<p>In addition to the browser, the GPU itself also needs to support the feature. So, for example, S3 Texture Compression (S3TC) is only available on Tegra-based tablets. Most browsers make the WebGL context available through the <code>webgl</code> context name, but older ones need <code>experimental-webgl</code> as well. In addition, the upcoming <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/API/WebGL2RenderingContext">WebGL 2</a> is fully backwards-compatible and will have the context name <code>webgl2</code>.</p>

+
+<p>Starting with Gecko 10.0 {{geckoRelease("10.0")}}, there are two preferences available which let you control the capabilities of WebGL for testing purposes:</p>
+
+<dl>
+ <dt><code>webgl.min_capability_mode</code></dt>
+ <dd>A Boolean property that, when <code>true</code>, enables a minimum capability mode. When in this mode, WebGL is configured to only support the bare minimum feature set and capabilities required by the WebGL specification. This lets you ensure that your WebGL code will work on any device or browser, regardless of their capabilities. This is <code>false</code> by default.</dd>
+ <dt><code>webgl.disable_extensions</code></dt>
+ <dd>A Boolean property that, when <code>true</code>, disables all WebGL extensions. This is <code>false</code> by default.</dd>
