How to run it?

You need Visual Studio 2015(or above) and you can just open the .sln file.

How to see different fractals and colors?

• You can change to the fractal you want to see in Source.cpp - simply remove the comment from the fractal you want to see and run it!
• If you want to change the coloring you can do that the same way you can change the fractal - go in FractalColors.h (Fractals/FractalColor.h) and then remove the comment from the coloring you want.

What was the biggest issue I had to deal with?

It was the performance. It was an issue for fractals like the Mandelbrot Set, Julia Set, etc. I fixed the problem by making them on multiple threads and using AVX2.
