How do i use query selector

document.getElementById(“MyCanvas”); , i’m new and there are alot of things i do not know, how do ppl know when to use what with what method , e.g. when using getElementByID … its always (“MyCanvas”) , or when using getContext… always “2d”… how do ppl know what is the word for those method…

getElementById is a build in javascript function is selects based on the id name. If you have a html element:

<canvas></canvas>

you can give a element an id:

<canvas id="MyCanvas"></canvas>

so you create the name for the element to select with getElementById. If you don’t know id’s, you might want to read a bit about them
