Pathfinding Algorithms visualized

What is it

This project was made with HTML, CSS, and JS, and helps demonstrate various pathfinding algorithms (such as BFS, A*).


Using it

Using the website, is quite simple, follow these steps:

  1. Click on the Cell Type dropdown, and select the Start Cell. This will allow you to specify where the algorithm needs to start searching from.
  2. Optionally click on the Path Cell which acts like a barrier for where the various algorithms can't move on. (Note that the algorithm's cannot move diagonally). Once you have selected the Path Cell, you can just move your mouse around the grid to "draw" the obstacles.
  3. Set an ending position by using the End Cell in the dropdown. As the name implies, it lets you specify the end location for where the algorithm needs to find a path to.

At this point once you have set the Start Cell, (optionally any Path Cells), and the End Cell, you can either press the spacebar to simulate one step in the algorithm, or just press the play button to let the algorithm automatically step forward every 1 second.

If at any point you want to pause the algorithm, or just restart, then press the pause or clear buttons repectively!
