Well... you can read about the API...
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Canvas_API

You split your "canvas area" into the dimensions of your grid requirements, and you draw lines or just use math :-/

You can also look at this fine demo:

(not mine. This is done kindly by Kimani Walters)

And then there's this:

So... really.. my answer is "just google it" and you will find a bunch of examples.
