✨ Code Your Own Universe ✨
A scriptable cellular automata web simulator made with the Yew framework and scriptable through Rhai.script.
This software was developed as an interactive playground for the hackathon lecture on Cellular Automata: a crash course into discrete computational modelling at ESF CoCo 2023.
In addition to this software, helpful materials can be found below:
If you don't already have it installed, it's time to install Rust: https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install.
The rest of this guide assumes a typical Rust installation which contains both rustup and Cargo.
To compile Rust to WASM, we need to have the wasm32-unknown-unknown target installed.
If you don't already have it, install it with the following command:
rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknownNow that we have our basics covered, it's time to install the star of the show: [Trunk]. Simply run the following command to install it:
cargo install trunk wasm-bindgen-cliThat's it, we're done!
trunk serveRebuilds the app whenever a change is detected and runs a local server to host it.
There's also the trunk watch command which does the same thing but without hosting it.
trunk build --releaseThis builds the app in release mode similar to cargo build --release.
You can also pass the --release flag to trunk serve if you need to get every last drop of performance.
Unless overwritten, the output will be located in the dist directory.
