Technical Guide

Canvas globalCompositeOperation implements CSS Compositing Level 1 blend modes. The base image is drawn first with source-over. The blend image is drawn on top with the selected composite operation and globalAlpha for opacity. Multiply darkens by multiplying color values. Screen lightens by inverting, multiplying, and inverting. Overlay combines multiply and screen based on base brightness. All operations are hardware-accelerated.
