In this demo, we create a sprite using a simple <div> element with the background-image set to our sprite. We update the animation by using the background-position property to slide our "window" over the spritesheet.
<div style="
width: 64px;
height: 64px;
background-image: url('/dude.png');
background-position: 0px
">
</div>
The red box represents the "window" we are showing in our animation.
