myPhysicsLab provides JavaScript classes to build real-time interactive animated physics simulations.
Besides the links on this page for each class and interface, see also:
The myPhysicsLab website shows the simulations running and contains explanations of the math behind them.
Building myPhysicsLab Software has information about building, testing, internationalization, and general programming issues.
The How Does It Work? section of myPhysicsLab explains how physics simulations work in general.
myPhysicsLab Architecture is the best place to start for understanding the software.
2D Physics Engine Overview covers the rigid body physics engine.
Customizing myPhysicsLab Simulations tells how to customize using only a browser and text editor.
