- Optimize rendering
- Perhaps switch from
canvas-sketchto a more stable and performant library (or home-grown)
- Perhaps switch from
- Further optimize the algorithm.
- Use fixed-size data structures instead of arrays?
- Allocate as much during initialization, before rendering.
- Measure and optimize
Universe.step()function. - Measure random-js and prob.js performance to ensure it is not a huge bottleneck.
- Add camera logic with zoom and tracking.
- Rendering performance is currently pretty poor (18-20 fps).
- There's no keymapping for zooming / reset, yet.
