Nice! For those who aren't too familiar with P5.js, you may enjoy this introduction: http://hello.p5js.org/ however, do note that the real-time video compositing is done with a different library ( https://github.com/brianchirls/Seriously.js/

be careful with that Seriously repository. The link to seriouslyjs(dot)org appears to be trying to install malware.

I really love Processing (and its derivative P5.js) but I never really have any ideas to what to build with these tools in order to get truly dexterous and acquainted with them. I’ve recently set myself the goal of implementing the ”Wave Function Collapse Algorithm” (https://github.com/mxgmn/WaveFunctionCollapse/blob/master/RE...) in P5.js as a kind of catalyst to get me going.

Dan Shiffman has a great YouTube channel on Processing stuff (mostly P5 these days). https://www.youtube.com/user/shiffman/

I have watched so many hours of Dan's videos because he inspires a fervency of the acquisition of knowledge. I absolutely wish that I had his videos whenever I was first starting to program. His attitude is so endearing as it is clear that he simply can't contain his excitement about programming.

His Youtube channel used to be called "Coding Rainbow", but he was unfortunately forced to change it. He really does a great job at capturing the sense of wonder that "Reading Rainbow" inspired in me as a kid.

To maybe save people a bit of time who do what I did:

The video compositing library seems to no longer have a main website.

The video drawing library, popcorn.js was run by mozilla but they no longer maintain it. There is a fork however. On the github page for this, it links to a js fiddle to try it out which fails to do the simple demo. The reason it fails is because the location it's pulling popcorn.js from is now just serving up HTML (js fiddle could make this clearer there's an issue). You may have to try things out locally to get it working.
