Drawing App using HTML, CSS & JavaScript

Hello, today we’re going to learn how to use HTML, CSS & JavaScript to create a Drawing App. By following these instructions, you can simply make this Drawing App in HTML, CSS & JavaScript. Simply by adhering to the procedures mentioned below, you will be able to develop this amazing Drawing App.

Drawing App Javascript

This project will is good for beginners and help them to build their front-end development skills. In Today’s session, We will use HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to complete this Drawing App Project.

Project Description

Step 1
The HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) will help us to create the structure for the list with some necessary attributes and elements to make Drawing App Project.

Step 2
Then we will use CSS (Cascading Stylesheet) which will help us to style or design the project with suitable padding and alignment in the Drawing App Project.

Step 3
At last we will use JS (JavaScript) which will add a logic to make the Drawing App Project functioning from the user end.

I hope you have got an idea about the project.

    </div>

First we’ll start with creating the structure of the Drawing App project for that as you can see the above code we have used all the necessary elements & attributes to setup the structure. Let us know code the CSS part to add styling and aligned the tags.

CSS Code for Drawing App

* {
  padding: 0;
  margin: 0;
  box-sizing: border-box;
  font-family: "Poppins", sans-serif;
}
#paintArea {
  position: relative;
  border: 8px solid #788eff;
  height: 70vh;
  width: 100%;
}
.options {
  height: 30vh;
  background-color: #788eff;
  padding: 30px;
}
.tools-row {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr 1fr;
  gap: 20px;
  margin-bottom: 40px;
}
.tools-row h5 {
  margin-bottom: 10px;
  color: #ffffff;
  font-weight: 400;
  font-size: 18px;
  letter-spacing: 0.5px;
}
.tools-row button {
  padding: 12px 0;
  border-radius: 25px;
  border: none;
  background-color: #ffffff;
  font-size: 18px;
  color: #788eff;
}
input[type="range"] {
  height: 40px;
}
input[type="color"] {
  -webkit-appearance: none;
  -moz-appearance: none;
  appearance: none;
  background-color: transparent;
  width: 70px;
  height: 40px;
  border: none;
  cursor: pointer;
}
input[type="color"]::-webkit-color-swatch {
  border-radius: 8px;
  border: 3px solid #000000;
}
input[type="color"]::moz-color-swatch {
  border-radius: 8px;
  border: 3px solid #000000;
}

Second comes the CSS code, which is mentioned above in that we have styled for the structure we have padded as well as aligned the Drawing App project so that it is properly situated and doesn’t get messy with suitable CSS elements. Now we have created the structure using HTML and styled the webpage using CSS its time to add the functionality using JavaScript in this project.

});

window.onload = init();

Last stage of the project the JavaScript in which we have added the logical and coded as per the requirement with some conditions. In this lengthy JS code we have coded the functionality of each defined structure with some conditions. To make this project functioning we have added the features of the drawing app under the event listener function and pass om some conditions so that it act as per the user action and throws the error when it doesn’t satisfies the condition. Let us see the Final Output of the project Drawing App using HTML, CSS & JavaScript (Source Code).
