Hi everyone! I want to create a Mandelbrot set in Java on Linux

  1. Which libraries do you recommend for this?
  2. Should I use OpenGL or Vulkan for rendering?

Hi everyone! I want to create a Mandelbrot set in Java on Linux 1. Which libraries do you recommend for this? 2. Should I use OpenGL or Vulkan for rendering?

  1. For creating a Mandelbrot set in Java, some recommended libraries are:

    • JFreeChart: A popular library for creating charts and graphs in Java.
    • Apache Commons Math: Provides mathematical algorithms and utilities for Java.
    • Jzy3d: A 3D visualization library that can be used for rendering Mandelbrot sets.

  2. For rendering the Mandelbrot set, OpenGL would be a more common choice as it has better support in Java libraries and frameworks compared to Vulkan.

hmm ig i could use javafx then

# strong oyster really?

you don't need fast rendering, only keep 30fps
the only thing that matter is the speed at which you generate it

#

do you think i can zoom in deep in the mandelbrot set

#

or is it evnetually gonna lagg

hmm alr thx

#

im a nooby and in this project i dont wanna use chatgpt

#

so this gonna be a difficult one 😭

#

but interesting

#

i really want to make this

#

it looks so cool lol

#

@strong oyster a simpler one that doesn't require zooming would be game of life

strong oyster
#

XD that's the cool thing abt it 😭

#

imma try to first get the mandelbrot itself to function

#

that's the first goal ig

#

harder then i expected...

#

tbh

#

im going to use a bit of ai

#

ik ive not did a lot alr 😭

#

XD

#

giving up mindset ik 😭

#

follow a course about swing or javafx, don't use the shortcut mindset

I did mandelbrots, with zoom back in college (late 90s) with just awt. There's no worry about frame rate, because there won't be any once you zoom in, you'll be lucky to get 1/s. Most people choose a double as their floating point computation and that will not get you very deep at all without a large number of artifacts of error. I would try to design it so the computation is pluggable so you can swap out double for something better. BigDecimal will work but it is slow. There might be better data types for this and I'm sure I've read maybe half a dozen papers on optimizations over the last 25+ years.

I’m going to try it tomorrow on my own then

Ai is a good tool for professionals, it's a big handicap for beginners. Like having someone else do your assignment for you.
