Zyme is an esoteric language for genetic programming: creating computer programs by means of natural selection.

I love this idea, it's thought provoking and I want to play

Is there a repository of examples or experiments built with Zyme? Curious to see what has been explored so far

I think it could be fun to focus on visual experiments; shader-like programs as a way to easily explore different outputs

Thanks! Since the language is still in its early stages of being able to evolve programs, I don't have many examples to share yet. I didn’t realize when I began but developing the language itself was just the beginning - I hadn't anticipated how much work would still be needed on tuning, development tools, and implementing the genetic programming framework before getting concrete results.
