Perlin Fields

Generative particle fields using perlin noise

Samples

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. See deployment for notes on how to deploy the project on a live system.

Prerequisites

Cairo

Prerequisite Installation

https://www.cairographics.org/download/
