Re: Show HN: BFS, Dijkstra and A* interactive demo made in React

Two years ago I had to make a project about pathfinding for a university project, and I just realised I never showed it anywhere.

I made this little interactive playground for various pathfinding algorithms showing how they can be seen as a general algorithm with different a different queue and different heuristic in use.

The readme has some theory but the cool thing is the link to the app on netlify where you can experiment moving the positions of start, goal and of the obstacles.

If you're interested I'd suggest you keep the readme open while toying with the app, as the readme has more theory.

Do I have to build it myself, or do you have it hosted somewhere?

There is a link on the About section: https://interactive-pathfinding.netlify.com

I love pathfinding visualizations. Every time. Good job!

Nice work :) There's never going to bee too many learning materials with good visualizations.

For pathfinding, I've made one myself [0], and the Red Blob Games [1] one is also very popular.

Thanks for pointing that out, the link is actually kinda hidden. I added it to the readme
