Installation & Usage

Install this component into your svelte or sveltekit application running npm i svelte-mandelbrot-explorer. You can then use it like this:

<script>
    import MandelbrotExplorer from 'svelte-mandelbrot-explorer'
</script>

<MandelbrotExplorer/>

The component defaults to a canvas size of 300x150. This is the default size of the <canvas> element. You should probably bind the width and height to that of a wrapper <div>. Like so:

<script>
    import MandelbrotExplorer from '$lib';
    let width = 150;
    $: height = width / 16 * 9; //Preserve 16/9 aspect ratio
</script>

<div
    bind:clientWidth={width}
    style={`width: 100%; height: ${height}px;`}
>
    <MandelbrotExplorer {width} {height} />
</div>

API Reference

  • width & height

    Type: number

    Default: width=300, height=150

    Control the dimensions

  • frozen

    Type: boolean

    Default: false

    If true, all interactivity is disabled and only a static image is shown

  • iterations

    Type: number

    Default: 500

    The maximum number of iterations for drawing the mandelbrot set. Higher iteration count results in higher accuracy, but slows down rendering.

  • focalPoint

    Type: [number,number]

    Default [0,0]

    Where on the complex plane the viewport should be centered.

  • zoom

    Type: number,

    Default: 0.3333333333,

    How zoomed in the viewport should be. The viewport-width in the complex plane is equal to 1/zoom.

Limitations & Considerations

Because this is a WebGl based implementation, the precision is limited. The Image breaks down after about a 50'000x zoom.

The Canvas is only rerendered if one of the attributes changes. If you never change the attributes, it will basically be an image.
