Hypercycles

Work-in-progress simulation of hypercycles and parasites in pre-biotic evolution, from the paper "SPIRAL WAVE STRUCTURE IN PRE-BIOTIC EVOLUTION: HYPERCYCLES STABLE AGAINST PARASITES" by M.C. BOERLIJST and P. HOGEWEG

To develop:

  1. install node.js and npm
  2. clone this repo
  3. install dependencies: From the terminal, enter the directory:
cd hypercycles
npm install
  1. run devlepment server with live reload
npm run dev

To build:

  1. follow the steps above from "To develop"
  2. run npm run build from the terminal

Still to do:

  • simulate diffusion
  • better handling of edge cases?
  • ability to draw in parasites?
