WebGLVertexArrayObject

Available in workers

The WebGLVertexArrayObject interface is part of the WebGL 2 API, represents vertex array objects (VAOs) pointing to vertex array data, and provides names for different sets of vertex data.

When working with WebGLVertexArrayObject objects, the following methods are useful:

• createVertexArray()
• deleteVertexArray()
• isVertexArray()
• bindVertexArray()

[!NOTE] The OES_vertex_array_object extension allows you to use vertex array objects in a WebGL 1 context.

Examples

const vao = gl.createVertexArray();
gl.bindVertexArray(vao);

// …

// calls to bindBuffer or vertexAttribPointer
// which will be "recorded" in the VAO

// …
