Conway's Game of Life

Netlify Status

This is a simple implementation of Conway's Game of Life in React and TypeScript.

Demo: https://sharp-goldberg-10cf45.netlify.app/

We must follow these rules:

- Any live cell with fewer than two live neighbours dies, as if by underpopulation.

- Any live cell with two or three live neighbours lives on to the next generation.

- Any live cell with more than three live neighbours dies, as if by overpopulation.

- Any dead cell with exactly three live neighbours becomes a live cell, as if by reproduction.

This was implemented by creating a two-dimensional array to simulate a grid, and then populating it with random values of either 0 to represent a dead cell, or 1 to represent a living cell.
