How to Use
Click on grid squares to create living cells (black) or remove them. Watch as patterns evolve following Conway's rules. **Objective:** Observe how cellular patterns grow, die, or stabilize over generations based on neighboring cells. **Mouse Controls:** • Click empty squares to create live cells • Click live cells to remove them • Drag to paint multiple cells **Keyboard Controls:** • R - Run continuous simulation • S - Step forward one generation • C - Clear entire grid **Key Mechanics:** • Live cells with 2-3 neighbors survive • Dead cells with exactly 3 neighbors become alive • All other cells die or stay dead • Changes happen simultaneously each generation **Interface:** • Use preset patterns for interesting starting configurations • Toggle Grid, Trail, and Colors for better visibility • Export button saves your current pattern • Generation counter and live cell count track progress Try the Gosper Glider Gun or Acorn patterns to see complex behaviors emerge from simple starting conditions.
