KevLinDev Blog

I’ve doing a little bit of cleaning and rummaging through old files. I came across an L-System implementation in Perl that I was thinking of using for my chapter in SVG Unleashed. The example didn’t capture my topic well enough, so last weekend I decided to port the code over to JavaScript. You can play with my initial version here.

I decided that I have enough A-Life topics to warrant a new section on the site. In that section you’ll find the just mentioned L-System along with a downloadable version of the code, an SVG implementation of Langton’s Ants (an old example), and a few versions of Conway’s Game of Life including one version written in C#.

If you’ve visited KevLinDev in the recent past, then you’ll probably notice that the site has a new look. I finally found the time to rework the pages on the site to use CSS the right way. No more formatting with tables (shame on me). There is still plenty more work to do, but I’m happy to have completed the first round of changes.
