Atul Varma c803c41bd0 Add support for nesting in random creature generation. (#34 ) This builds upon #30 and #33 by adding support for randomly nested symbols in complexity levels 0-4 of the creature page. Currently, we don't _recursively_ nest symbols, so e.g. we won't make an eye containing an eye containing a cube. And for now we'll only add a nested symbol if the parent symbol has the `always_nest` metadata property defined.		2021-02-27 10:02:07 -05:00

README.md

This is an attempt by Nina Paley (art) and Atul Varma (code) to tinker with procedural art.

Right now there is no particular goal other than to explore various ideas. The project consists of a web site with multiple pages, each of which is and experiment of some kind.

It can be viewed online or iterated on locally using the instructions below.

Quick start

This requires NodeJS. It was started with NodeJS 14.15.4, but hopefully it should work with any recent version.

After cloning the repository and entering it, run:

npm run watch

then visit http://localhost:1234.

Running tests

To run tests interactively, run:

npm run test:watch

Deployment

To deploy the project to GitHub Pages, run:

npm run deploy
