## Compiling

To build the executable, in the root directory run:

    crystal deps

    crystal build src/life.cr

In order to compile the program with the commands above you need to have crystal and CrSFML installed.

## Usage

To run:

    ./life

To change the initial configuration and size of the grid and other settings, please edit the files `life.cfg` and `board.dat`. The file `board.dat` is only used if the `generation mode` is set to `file`, otherwise (`random`), the initial board state is randomly generated.

RIP [John Conway](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Horton_Conway).
