Image for 2D graphics

2D graphics

2D graphics refer to images and visual representations created on a flat surface, like screens or paper, using two dimensions: width and height. They include drawings, digital illustrations, photos, and computer interfaces. These graphics are made using pixels, tiny colored dots that combine to form images. They are essential for designing websites, video games, and user interfaces. Unlike 3D graphics, which add depth, 2D graphics focus solely on flat visuals. They are versatile, efficient, and fundamental in visual communication, often used to convey information clearly and attractively within a two-dimensional plane.
