Julia Set Visualization

Tools

• OpenGL
• GLFW + GLAD
• GLM

Purpose

This was created as an extension of my Mandelbrot Set, and thus likely does not follow best practices. This is a C++ program that visualizes the Julia Set using OpenGL. It renders to a depth of 1000 iterations. It has zooming and panning capabilities to allow basic exploration of the set.

Compilation

This was created using CMake in MS Visual Studio 2022. Ensure that all packages are downloaded (this project utilizes the vcpkg package manager). Note that compilation must have direct reference to the /src/shaders unless the shaders.h is altered to have the shaders embedded in the code.
