golly in html?

Post by tommyaweosme » October 12th, 2024, 7:19 pm

i have this constant lingering feeling my school is about to block conwaylife.com (i have a home computer i use for most of the things i do on here), so im wondering if there was a way i could download golly as html so i could "smuggle" the file into school? i did this with minecraft, so i know it works. if anyone could provide golly in an html file, this would be great. especially if it opened up in one of those mini-windows so hapara focus sessions cant close it. thanks! <3

So basically you are already breaking some chaos here on the conwaylife.com forums, and now you are asking for an advice regarding how to break your school's rules as well?

That said, there is an online version of Golly but probably not exactly what you are asking for.

Maybe check LifeViewer, which is open-source now?

It would be nice if the golly gang would release an HTML version.

Hashlife and zooming on an infinite plane are what LifeViewer cannot do.

Both are excellent software. Both are free. Hard to believe such a low level of downloads.

There's an open-source HashLife implementation, copy.sh/life, which is quite impressively fast for patterns like wedge-grow.mc, once you push the >> button a few times.
