Forking https://github.com/darius/Turing-Drawings, which optimized the simulation by compiling it to JS, I added some extra features, like a visualization of the transition graph, a keyboard shortcut r to create a new random drawing and a history from which you can reload already visited machines.

Hi Darius!

Nice work. The transition graph looks good. One minor suggestion I would have is that maybe you should try to fit the transition graph closer to the visualization if possible, so that you don't have to scroll up and down to see it. It might also be more intuitive if there was a random drawing generated right when you load the page. You could also highlight the keyboard shortcut for Random by renaming the button to Random (r). Just some ideas.

I didn't do the autostart because some people advised to add an epilepsy warning because things can get really flashy. Maybe there would be a way to automatically detect and reduce that, hmmm.

It does start automatically when a machine is linked though. Good point on the button rename and yeah, the layout definitely hasn't been optimized yet.

P.S. I'm not Darius, though I may wanna be ^^

Apologies void4, In theory you could have a whole-page seizure warning, with an OK button, and when people press OK it would store a value in local storage so that it doesn't get displayed again on that browser.

Good idea, it's using local storage now :)
