FracTool
======================================================================

![Fractal](fractal.png)

Generate fractal images.

[Website](https://andydevs.github.io/fractool/)

Usage
----------------------------------------------------------------------

### Install

- Download appropriate binary from
[releases](https://github.com/andydevs/fractool/releases/) page.
- For *Windows*, simply run the installer.
- For *MacOS*, run the self-extracting tar file (.sh) with
the argument `--prefix=[install-directory]`
- For MacOS, use the "Darwin" installer

### Running the CLI

Running `$ fractool` generates a fractal and saves it in the current
working directory as `fractal.png`

The default algorithm to generate an image is the mandelbrot algorithm
for the equation "z = z^2 + c". To change the fractal generation
algorithm use `--algorithm`.

Run `$ fractool --help` for a full list of commands.
