How to Use
• Click cells on the grid to toggle them alive (filled) or dead (empty) • Press R or click "RUN" to start the automatic simulation where cells evolve according to Conway's rules: - Live cells with 2-3 neighbors survive - Dead cells with exactly 3 neighbors become alive - All other cells die or stay dead • Press T to stop, O for single step, or use the corresponding buttons • Use keyboard shortcuts: R (run), T (stop), O (one step) • Adjust settings to customize your experience: - Tail mode shows cell history with colors - Field size changes the grid dimensions - Cell size makes individual cells larger or smaller - Delay controls simulation speed • Try the LIFE preset to see a classic example pattern • Watch how simple initial patterns can create complex, evolving behaviors over time
