What is Daximation?

Daximation is a software program to help coaches and ambitious players create animated sports diagrams. It is completely online and free. It works for any sport and any language - all you need is a web browser. Diagrams can be static - you do not have to animate them. They can be simple drills or complex tactical analysis.

Features:

• Free
  
• No login or registration
  
• Click 'Share' to save the project and create a link. Others can view your creation if they have the link
  
• Freehand drawing, cones, balls, and multiple shapes
  
• Easy editing/repositioning of shapes at any point in the timeline
  
• Field diagrams appear when you click a ball. Click multiple times for more fields.
• Mouseover anything for a tooltip explanation
  
• Select a shape by clicking it once, or start in an empty space and drag to create a selection box that will select anything it touches. Cannot be in Freehand drawing mode.
  
• Select multiple shapes by holding down the 'shift' key
  
• 'Delete' key deletes any shape that is selected
  
• And of course, easy animation

Why am I doing this?

I normally have some sort of programming project on the side to teach myself some new technology. In this case, SVG. I also coach soccer. I saw an opportunity to combine the two and make a sports tactics program online. I've taken the extra step of opening it up to the world through the URL Daximation.com (My middle name is Dax). If people like it, maybe they will be generous and donate or click on some ads.
