Return value

An Array of strings with all the supported WebGL extensions.

Examples

var canvas = document.getElementById('canvas');
gl = canvas.getContext('webgl');

var extensions = gl.getSupportedExtensions();
// Array [ 'ANGLE_instanced_arrays', 'EXT_blend_minmax', ... ]

See also the WebGLRenderingContext.getExtension() method to get a specific extension object.
