# Pathfinding demo
![C++ pathfinding demo](./docs/img/screenshot_1.png)
**Work in progress**
This is a demo of pathfinding on a 2D grid. It consists of 2 main parts:
* python notes and implementation
* jupyter notebook file
* standalone python script
* C++ interactive demo
## Python
### Standalone script
Run `python pathfinding_demo.py`. Requires numpy and matplotlib to be installed.
### Jupyter notebook
Contains the same demo as the standalone script and some notes. Since Github supports Jupyter Notebooks now, you can go [directly to the file](./python/pathfinding_demo.ipynb).
## C++
### Windows
#### Dependencies
* `vcpkg` needs to be installed and `VCPKG_ROOT` set. See the [installation instructions](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/vcpkg/get_started/get-started?pivots=shell-powershell).
* Visual Studio with Desktop development with C++ workload (or MSVC Build Tools)
#### Build - option 1: CLI
Run "Developer Command Prompt for VS 20xx":
```cmd
cmake --preset=vcpkg
cmake --build build
```
Run the `pathfinding.exe` binary in the `build` folder.
#### Build - option 2: Visual Studio
TODO
### Linux
#### Dependencies
* SDL3
* SDL3-image
* GLEW
e.g. on Archlinux:
```
pacman -S glew sdl3 sdl3_image
```
#### Build
```bash
cmake
cmake --build build -j 16
```
Optionally you can also build the compilation database (TODO)
Run the `pathfinding` binary in the `build` folder.
