Hey all,

I made a fun little program for windows and macOS that simulates neural cellular automata through pixel convolution and activation functions! It's called Moonlight Pools and it's available on itch.io ( https://softcorebee.itch.io/moonlight-pools )

Tech stack:

• Frontend: HTML/JS
• Backend: C# with ASP.NET Core
• Desktop: Electron (Windows & macOS)

Originally a browser experiment, I rebuilt it as a native desktop app for better performance and offline use.

Inspired by Emergent Garden's "Neural Patters" - https://neuralpatterns.io

Would love feedback! :3

Been coming to this spot every year since I was a kid to find these babies!

This year there are at least 15-25 growing in this tiny patch alone, thanks to the rain we've been getting lately :)
