# Route

![route](https://github.com/atlou/Route/assets/30378214/c8f906cb-cfba-47a2-88c9-f0e8e5dc4fc2)

Route is a Swift Playground app built for the **Swift Student Challenge 2024**. The app enables users to visually grasp how those three **pathfinding algorithms** operate:

- A*

- Dijkstra's

- Greedy Best-First Search

## Features

- **Interactive grid:** Create different maps by placing obstacles and moving the start and target blocks to different locations.

- **Maze generation:** Challenge the pathfinding algorithms with auto generated mazes.

- **Algorithm selection:** Choose from three distinct pathfinding algorithms. Each selection comes with a concise description, outlining the algorithm's approach, strengths, and weaknesses.

- **Real-time solving animation:** Watch an animated visualization of the algorithm as it attempts to find a path.

## Getting Started

### Prerequisites

- Ensure you have the latest version of Xcode.

- Run the app using an **iPad** simulator in **landscape** mode.

### Installation

1. Clone the project.

2. Open `Route.swiftpm` in Xcode.

3. Choose a simulator (either iPad Pro 11-inch or iPad Pro 13-inch).

4. Press `Run` to build and run the app.
