Description

Current CSS -> Shape in Origami.js is a very heavy process. Personally I don't like anything about this cast. Is a really lazy method and very heavy. Doesn't worth, I think.

Maybe think in another option more ellegant like html2canvas.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Research the html2canvas library and other lightweight alternatives for CSS to shape conversion. Compare performance and elegance with the current method. Evaluate integration feasibility into Origami.js.
