SKILL.md

This skill is a breaking-change checklist for bringing a v7 codebase up to v8. Work top-down through the categories; the list maps each v7 pattern to its v8 replacement.

Quick Start

Install the single package, then port in this order: imports → Application init → Graphics → Text → events → shaders/filters → cleanup.

const app = new Application();
await app.init({ width: 800, height: 600 });
document.body.appendChild(app.canvas);

const g = new Graphics()
  .rect(0, 0, 100, 100)
  .fill({ color: 0xff0000 })
  .stroke({ width: 2, color: 0x000000 });
app.stage.addChild(g);
