Conway's Game of Life Vizualizer

The Game of Life is a cellular automaton devised by the British mathematician John Conway in 1970. This app generates a board and then randomly creates starting organisms before playing out iterations of the game based on the rules that make up the Game of Life:

Any live cell with two or three live neighbours survives.
Any dead cell with three live neighbours becomes a live cell.
All other live cells die in the next generation. Similarly, all other dead cells stay dead.

But don't worry too much about the rules, just enjoy the show 😎
