# Fractal Fun
Experiments with the [Mandelbrot set][mandelbrot]. This is based on the
Mandelbrot exercise in chapter 10 of the the [Head First HTML5
Programming][hfhtml5] book. This project uses [Web Workers][webworkers] to
compute the fractal in parallel.
## Getting Started
On Firefox, simply open [`fractal.html`][fractal.html] and it will just
work. For Safari and Chrome, you must run a webserver to work around their
security restrictions:
```sh
make
```
