Malsys is open-source!

8^th of February 2015: Finally! After three years of postponing I have managed to find some time to open the source codes. Check out the GitHub repository.

The primary idea behind opening the source is to share some nice solutions and techniques with the community. Also, there is no reason to keep the sources in secret.

What is Malsys?

Malsys is online L-system generator designed for working and experimenting with L-systems. Malsys interface is friendly for new users and also offers advanced features for experienced users. Part of this web site is a gallery which shows many L-systems examples and any registered user can contribute to it.

Malsys was created as a Bachelor work called L-systems online. Details about the thesis can be found on this page.

Gallery

The gallery contains examples of many L-systems from various publications and places on the web. The most of them are represented as 2D vector images in SVG. Malsys alsos upports amazing 3D L-systems rendered with modern WebGL in the browser. You need to have modern browser in order to see them properly (see the comparison). 3D L-systems are rendered by your browser and you can rotate, zoom or pan them. You can check whether your browser supports WebGL at http://get.webgl.org/.
