It produces a huge variety of interesting life forms.\n\nThere are various versions available. Python, Matlab and web (JavaScript) versions are real-time, interactive, and equipped with statistics tools. Jupyter and R versions are non-interactive and just for demonstration purposes.\n\n## Showcase video\n\n[![screen cap](https://github.com/Chakazul/Lenia/blob/master/Screencap/Video2.png)](https://youtu.be/HT49wpyux-k)\n[![Watch in YouTube](https://chakazul.github.io/icons/icon-youtube.png)](https://youtu.be/HT49wpyux-k)\n[![Watch in Vimeo](https://chakazul.github.io/icons/icon-vimeo.png)](https://vimeo.com/440386996)\n\n[![screen cap](https://github.com/Chakazul/Lenia/blob/master/Screencap/Video.png)](https://youtu.be/iE46jKYcI4Y)\n[![Watch in YouTube](https://chakazul.github.io/icons/icon-youtube.png)](https://youtu.be/iE46jKYcI4Y)\n[![Watch in Vimeo](https://chakazul.github.io/icons/icon-vimeo.png)](https://vimeo.com/277328815)\n\n## Python Version\n\nFastest version, minimalist layout.
