# HTML canvas strokeRect() Method

HTMLWeb DevelopmentFront End Technology

The strokeRect() method of the HTML canvas is used to create a rectangle on a web page. The <canvas> element allows you to draw graphics on a web page using JavaScript. Every canvas has two elements that describes the height and width of the canvas i.e. height and width respectively.

Following is the syntax −

context.strokeRect(p,q,width,height);

Above,

• p − The x-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the rectangle
• q − The y-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the rectangle
• width − Width of the rectangle
• height − Height of the rectangle

Let us now see an example to implement the strokeStyle property of canvas −
