This is a small side-project I had been wanting to make for a long time, but couldn't come up with the right approach to make it work until now. The biggest challenge was making it fast enough, I went through doing it in pure Python, to using numpy and now finally it runs on a GPU. I might have to rewrite it yet again, because the current server is very pricey! Hope you like it.

@naveenkumar It's not really in a shareable state, and would be pretty painful to run as it currently requires three servers (web front-end, queue server and one or more render servers).

Not perfect, but mesmerizing. This got me to look at Candy Japan, which otherwise I would not have ever known about it.

Love this. Not loving your server bill after a day on Product Hunt.

@mickc79 The GPU costs the same (~$200 / month) whether it's being used or not, so I prefer to see it being used.
