createCanvas()
The createCanvas() function is fundamental in p5.js, as it establishes the drawing space where all visual elements will be rendered. Creative coders use it to set up a dynamic environment for their sketches, allowing for the exploration of shapes, colors, and interactions. For example, you might create an interactive RGB color mixer tool where users can blend colors directly within the canvas space you define with createCanvas().
