An prorammable generative art engine


Degenerate is an programmable generative art engine that runs in the browser that can be programmed with Rust or JavaScript. It is deployed at degenerate.computer.

Quick Start

  • Go to https://degenerate.computer

  • Paste this code into the text area:

    rotateColor('green', 0.05 * TAU);
    circle();
    scale(0.75);
    wrap();
    for (let i = 0; i < 8; i++) {
      render();
    }
    rotate(0.8333 * TAU);
    rotateColor('blue', 0.05 * TAU);
    for (let i = 0; i < 8; i++) {
      render();
    }
    
  • Press Shift + Enter

  • It should look like this:
