Add Event Listeners for Lifecycle Methods (setup and draw) about p5.js HOT 4 CLOSED

Thank you very much for all this! This will be really helpful to help creating transitions.

from p5.js.

I think we have pre and post hooks already for before/after draw described here: https://github.com/processing/p5.js/blob/main/contributor_docs/creating_libraries.md

Extending that to also have pre/post setup etc hooks in the same manner would make sense to me!

Great, didn't know about this! I think I could use pre and post for setup, however. There are many sketches that do not have or utilize draw function. Also, is there a reason registerMethod is used instead of a more traditional on? Are there any differences on how they behave? ie. Can we register multiple methods to the same event, can we 'unregister', etc.
I will play with what is available right now and post here any updates.

Multiple functions can be registered to the same event, but it looks like there isn't an unregisterMethod. Adding that would also help make this more complete!
