Fractalshades 0.5.6 documentation

Fractalshades is a Python package for creating static and interactive visualisations of 2d fractals. It targets Windows and Unix operating systems and implements efficient algorithms for very-deep exploration of the Mandelbrot and the Burning_Ship sets (1.e-2000 scale and beyond).
