Playing around with OpenGL, GLSL, GLFW, GLEW by making Interactive Fractal Visualizations for Mandelbrot, Julia and more.
This program requires the following dependencies to compile and run:
- GLEW: The OpenGL Extension Wrangler Library, for managing OpenGL extensions.
- GLFW: A library for creating windows, contexts, and handling inputs for OpenGL.
- OpenGL: For rendering graphics.
- Standard build tools: gcc, make.
To build the program, run the following command:
./compile.shThis will create two executable named mandelbrot and julia in the current directory.
To run the program, execute the following command:
./mandelbrot
# or
./juliaBoth programs have the following keybindings:
c: Change the color mode.i: Invert the color mode gradient.q: Quit the program.>: Increase MaxIterations by 100.<: Decrease MaxIterations by 100.
Julia specific keybindings:
r: Increase Real part of the julia constant complex number.f: Decrease Real part of the julia constant complex number.t: Increase Imaginary part of the julia constant complex number.g: Decrease Imaginary part of the julia constant complex number.
