Answer 2

If you're not already experimented in programming, I would advise you to start by coding simple games without canvas (canvas is powerful, but that doesn't mean that you cannot do amazing things without)...

If you're not already quite skilled in Javascript, I would advise you to learn/perfect it, and follow the same advice than above to improve first your JS practice...

Anyway, if you want to study canvas use, I will suggest you to explore internet to get appropriate tutorials... but also explore reference stuff about it: I would suggest to start with a google search on "canvas mdn" and/or "canvas w3s" to get lot of good ressources links from Mozilla Developers Network and W3Schools, two of the greater web references ressources (the first is a little more technically oriented, the second a few more tutorials/beginners oriented -- definitively the choice is question of personnal taste ;))...
