    Hi HN, I've always been interested in fractals, especially the Mandelbrot and Julia sets. A few years ago I created a 2d viewer of this inherently 4d space. But the other day I decided to ask Claude and GPT how to make this a full RT 3d explorer. A few hours later and this was vibe coded. To use it you can use the mouse to rotate the fractal the the mouse wheel to zoom in and out. to map from 4d to 3d, one of the dims is mapped to an adjustable slider. the there is also a clipping plane slider to help visualize the internal structures of the fractal. I have mixed feelings about vibe coding.…

    I've always been dissatisfied that simple Mandelbrot explorers proport themselves as a Fractal Graphing Calculator. In summer break between semesters, I started making a real graphing calculator, parsing LaTeX to WebGL to let you graph most any combination of z and c. Fun ones to try include - sin(z^2+c) - c^z - z^{1.7}+c Also supports animation, just enter any other letter and turn it into a variable. Supports Mandelbrot or Julia Set style calculation. Use with a graphics card or integrated graphics
