About McWorter Dendrite Fractals

The McWorter Dendrite is a beautiful example of a fractal that exhibits self-similarity at different scales. This mathematical construct is created through an iterative process where simple geometric transformations are applied repeatedly to generate increasingly complex patterns.

Dendrite fractals are part of a larger family of L-systems (Lindenmayer systems) that model the growth processes of plant structures. The branching patterns you see resemble natural forms like trees, ferns, and even neural networks in the brain.

Adjust the parameters above to explore different variations of this fractal. Higher iteration counts will produce more detailed patterns but may take longer to render. The color options let you customize the aesthetic to match your preferences.
