Please share your code link so we can see what's wrong. This happens when your code fails in selecting the canvas element. This may help you: https://www.sololearn.com/post/90825/?ref=app But, again, please let us see your code.

The <script> you are running probably runs before the document is loaded and your canvas does not exist yet. Try this: document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", () => { let mycanvas = document.getElementById("mycanvas"); let ctx = mycanvas.getContext("2d"); ... etc etc });
