A program to generate high-resolution images of the mandelbrot set

Currently does not support zooming. ETA for zoom: whenever I actually figure out how this code actually works.

Building

gradlew build

Output binary is build/libs/Mandelbrot-<VERSION>-all.jar

Running

java -jar Mandelbrot-<VERSION>-all.jar <width> <height> <iterations> [optimized mode=false] [filename=image.png]

Large image sizes may take several hours to render. I recommend enabling optimized mode, as long as your real coordinate=0, as it can halve the rendering time, but may increase memory usage by 25%.
