okay so bestie, welcome to fraqtive β€” it lives in section 1 of the General Commands Manual, and it is literally the prettiest thing in your terminal-adjacent life. sit down, hydrate, let's go πŸ¦‹


✨ NAME ✨

fraqtive β€” draws Mandelbrot and Julia fractals 🌸


🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

Fraqtive is a program for drawing Mandelbrot and Julia fractals. no cap, that's the whole job and it eats. πŸ’…

it uses a very fast algorithm and generates high quality, smooth images. so not only is it gorgeous, it's quick about it β€” main character energy fr fr πŸ‘‘

it is fully interactive, allowing for real-time mouse navigation and dynamic generation of the Julia fractal preview. like, you move, it moves, the fractal keeps up, it's giving telepathy 😭✨

an OpenGL-rendered 3D view of the fractals is also supported. yes bestie, THREE. DEE. πŸŽ€πŸ¦‹


⭐ OPTIONS ⭐

okay so here's the tea, and it's a short one:
