Just another implementation of Conway's Game of Life. Since I had never done a version of this before, I thought it'd make a fun weekend project. A few weekends worth of enjoyable tinkering later it was done.
This version of the game uses tkinter's Canvas widget to render cells and to provide a way for the user to draw in living cells.
This is probably not the most optimized implementation you'll find, but it gets the job done pretty decently at small board sizes.
This project uses Pipenv to manage environments and dependencies. You'll probably want to use that to get things set up. That said, the only package you need to run this is NumPy so feel free to use whatever environment manager you prefer.
Once your environment is set up, run python -m main to run the game. Happy evolutions.
It'd be nice to save custom starting positions to replay them later. There's already a starting postions directory, so just saving the current position on the board as a JSON file and loading it dynamically ought to be pretty straightforward.
