Check out our collection of some of the crazy HTML5 and JavaScript experiments that demonstrate the performance of the framework in rendering a variety of cool interactive effects. Take note though that most of the demos here run smoothly with Google Chrome and Firefox but not in IE as HTML5 is not yet fully supported by it. Have fun!
