CellViz

Cellular Automata inspired by live-data visualization, designed to handle multidimensional and high-throughput data efficiently.

Authors

Requirements

To build and run CellViz, you will need:

• Boost dev libraries (not runtime)
• JsonCpp dev libraries
• Nlohmann Json dev libraries
• CMake
• SFML
• Alpha Vantage API Key

Installation on Ubuntu

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y cmake g++ lcov libboost-all-dev libsfml-dev libgtest-dev nlohmann-json3-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libgtk-3-dev libjsoncpp-dev

To use the Alpha Vantage API key, set the environment variable:

export API_KEY=YOUR_ALPHA_VANTAGE_KEY
