const BOARDID = 'your_div_id'; // Insert your id here!

const board = JXG.JSXGraph.initBoard(BOARDID, {
    boundingbox: [-1.5, 1.5, 1.5, -1.5],
    keepaspectratio: true,
    axis: true

var isPlaying = false;
var starttime = 0;
var timeElapsed = 0;
var requestId = 0;

var p = board.create('point',
    [() => Math.cos(timeElapsed), () => Math.sin(timeElapsed)]
);

function playing() {
    timeElapsed = (Date.now() - starttime) / 1000;
    board.update();
    requestId = window.requestAnimationFrame(playing);
};

function play() {
    if (!isPlaying) {
        starttime = Date.now();
        isPlaying = true;
        playing();
    }

    board.update();
};
The function `Date.now()` returns a time stamp in milliseconds. To make the variable `timeElapsed` count time in seconds the number `(Date.now() - starttime)` is divided by 1000. This example has been provided by the user Cleonis.

// Define the id of your board in BOARDID

const board = JXG.JSXGraph.initBoard(BOARDID, {
    boundingbox: [-1.5, 1.5, 1.5, -1.5],
    keepaspectratio: true,
    axis: true
});

var isPlaying = false;
var starttime = 0;
var timeElapsed = 0;
var requestId = 0;

var p = board.create('point',
    [() => Math.cos(timeElapsed), () => Math.sin(timeElapsed)]
);

function playing() {
    timeElapsed = (Date.now() - starttime) / 1000;
    board.update();
    requestId = window.requestAnimationFrame(playing);
};

function play() {
    if (!isPlaying) {
        starttime = Date.now();
        isPlaying = true;
        playing();
    }
};

function resetAnimation() {
    if (requestId) {
        window.cancelAnimationFrame(requestId);
    }
    timeElapsed = 0;
