Fractal demo

This project demonstrate some fractals. View it online by click the link above!

Getting started

This project use Rust programing language. Install Rust compiler from rust-lang.org.

Testing locally

Make sure you are using the latest version of stable rust by running rustup update.

cargo run --release

On Linux you need to first run:

sudo apt-get install libxcb-render0-dev libxcb-shape0-dev libxcb-xfixes0-dev libspeechd-dev libxkbcommon-dev libssl-dev

On Fedora Rawhide you need to run:

dnf install clang clang-devel clang-tools-extra speech-dispatcher-devel libxkbcommon-devel pkg-config openssl-devel libxcb-devel

For running the build_web.sh script you also need to install jq and binaryen with your packet manager of choice.

Compiling for the web

Make sure you are using the latest version of stable rust by running rustup update.

You can compile your app to WASM and publish it as a web page. For this you need to set up some tools. There are a few simple scripts that help you with this:

./setup_web.sh
./build_web.sh
./start_server.sh
open http://127.0.0.1:8080/

• setup_web.sh installs the tools required to build for web
• build_web.sh compiles your code to wasm and puts it in the docs/ folder (see below)
• start_server.sh starts a local HTTP server so you can test before you publish
• Open http://127.0.0.1:8080/ in a web browser to view

The finished web app is found in the docs/ folder (this is so that you can easily share it with GitHub Pages). It consists of three files:

• index.html: A few lines of HTML, CSS and JS that loads your app. You need to edit this (once) to replace eframe_template with the name of your crate!
• your_crate_bg.wasm: What the Rust code compiles to.
• your_crate.js: Auto-generated binding between Rust and JS.
