This project is about creating graphically beautiful fractals.

A fractal is a never-ending pattern that repeats itself at different scales, this property is called self-similarity
, although fractals are very complex, they are made by repeating a simple operation driven by recursion.
In fact, nature is full of fractals. For instance trees, rivers, coastlines, mountains, clouds, seashells, hurricanes:
And there is Abstract fractals β such as the Mandelbrot Set β can be generated by a computer calculating a simple equation over and over:
