About

Navigation Timing is a part of the Performance API that provides metrics related to navigation from one page to another.

WebGL is a cross-platform, royalty-free web standard that provides a low-level JavaScript API for rendering interactive 2D and 3D graphics directly in web browsers without plug-ins.

It is exposed through the HTML5 canvas element, uses a shader-based architecture with GLSL, runs on the GPU for hardware-accelerated rendering, and is supported by all major browsers including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge.
