Not my own project though related to something I have worked on in the past and would work on in the future :http://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulations/category/html This is an effort to port science and math sims that were initially built as Java applets but now need to become web-based (HTML5 canvas, SVG, javascript..etc) I posted a while back asking each developer to adopt a single sim and commit to doing a port on it. For anyone interested I can get you in touch with folks working on the sims.

This is very cool: http://phet.colorado.edu/sims/html/resistance-in-a-wire/late...

Do you know how many more sims there are to port?

A LOT: http://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulations/category/new

It is indeed very cool, if they can all be ported to modern web, you can do a lot of cool things with them.

here's an example of some work I did a while back that uses those sims in a digital notebook type environment: http://schoolnotez.com/
