History:
- OrganicBuilder was a version of this idea, written as a Java applet. Lots of people used it, and in 2007 I wrote a paper about what they created.
- A port to Android was made, written in Processing, and was for several years available as an app on the Google Play Store. That had something like 30,000 downloads.
- Now ported to the web using processing.js
TODO:
- port to p5.js (a more modern version of processing.js) or to native javascript, or C++ and OpenGL through WebAssembly
- make the interface more appropriate for the web
Testing locally:
- Using Python 3:
python -m http.server 8080
and then open this URL: http://localhost:8080/
