javascript physics made easy

what is boxbox?

boxbox is a fun and simple framework for making games with the box2d physics engine.

no, i mean really, what is it

boxbox is a framework for box2dweb, a JavaScript port of box2dflash, an ActionScript port of box2d, a C++ library.

The box2d physics engine is hard to use for a beginner. Further, its C++ style API doesn't make sense to JavaScript programmers. boxbox tries to solve both problems while adding its own sugar along the way.
