A C++ program for looking at Mandelbrot and Julia set fractals.
The bulk of the code is in src/main.cpp. A few important variables to edit to alter the output are:
| Variable | Description |
|---|---|
width/height |
Window width and height |
scaleFactor |
Initial zoom level of the display |
magnificationSpeed |
Amount to magnify by each time a fractal is finished drawing |
offsetX/offsetY |
Mandelbrot coordinates on which to zoom |

Changing the colors is very ... well, it's not very fun. To make it a bit easier, it's recommended to utilize the HSL to RGB conversion. I really just toy around with it to get it to something I think looks okay; there's not a real method to my madness there.
