Sorting Algorithms Visualizer

Sorting Visualizer

Responsive visualizer built using React for popular algorithms

See it in action

---

This repo is an attempt to help in learning popular sorting algorithms by visualization

Helps to

• understand the working of sorting algorithm
• check total swaps required
• check total comparisions
• compare algorithms side by side
• know the time taken (time is just an approximate unit for comparision)

Features

• Sort any given array of 3 digits positive integers
• Alter the speed of execution
• Start, pause and reset the execution
• Generate random array of numbers of sorting

Technologies

• React with hooks
• Styled components + React material (css and component libraries)
• Zustand (hooks based state management library)
• Vite (Bundler)

Features built using

• Animations are done using pure CSS and uses FLIP principle
• Flex is used for array display and manipulation of positions (flex order property)
• JavaScript async generators are used heavily for the controlled execution of algorithms

Run in your local

• git clone https://github.com/sadanandpai/sorting-visualizer.git
• npm install (after navigating inside the directory)
• npm run dev
