Mandelbrot Set Visualization

This repository contains a Mandelbrot set visualization program implemented in C++ using Simple and Fast Multimedia Library (SFML) for graphics rendering. Additionally, the visualization benefits from GLSL fragment shaders for efficient computation of the Mandelbrot set.

Features

  • Real-time rendering of the Mandelbrot set with smooth zoom and pan functionalities.
  • Utilizes GLSL fragment shaders for accelerated computation.
  • Interactive user interface for navigation and exploration.
  • Customizable parameters for the Mandelbrot set rendering.

Usage

  • Use arrow keys to pan the view.
  • Scroll up/down to zoom in/out (or use +/- keys).
  • Adjust parameters for different visualizations.
  • Increase/decrease the number of iterations with Right/Left Alt key.
  • To move around the screen more slowly, hold down Shift

Customization

Load different gradient from assets/gradients folder (or add your custom gradient - image with ratio 1024x10).

  • Rainbow: rainbow.png
  • Pastel: pastel.png
  • Green-Red-Blue: green-red-blue.png
  • Blue to yellow: blue-to-yellow.png
  • Aquarelle: aquarelle.png

Also you can customize some parameters:

  • iterations: Maximum iterations for Mandelbrot set computation.
  • zoomFactor: Zoom sensitivity.
  • velocity: The velocity at which you move around the screen
