This is a 42 curriculum project. It consists of making wireframe graphics from simple text files. The files are sequences of altitudes to be rendered as a wireframe model.

Here is an example of one those files:

The aim is to turn such a file into an isometric projection, using the school's basic graphics library MiniLibX.

The subject for the assignment can be found here.

I decided to go for every bonus, to add spherical projections, colors and bending, in order to make the project more fun.

To build the project, first clone it and then run make in the repository.

git clone --recursive https://github.com/qu-b/FdF.git

make

./fdf maps/example_map.fdf
