L-system-tree-modelling

Implementation of the paper L-systems: From the theory to visual models of plants as the course project for the course CSE333: Computer Graphics at IIIT Delhi. The project was done by Shreyas Kabra and Prakhar Gupta.

Pre-requisites:

• OpenGL (version 3.3 or above)
• CMake
• C++ 17

How to build and run

1. git clone https://github.com/Prakhar-Gupta-03/L-system-tree-modelling.git
2. Move to the root of the directory
3. bash build.sh
4. Run ./L-System-Based-3D-Tree-Modelling

Final Results
