Fraktaler 3 is a

cross-platform (Linux, Windows, Android, Web)
fractal program by Claude Heiland-Allen
for fast deep zooming of hybrid escape-time 2D fractals.

It has a graphical explorer using SDL2, OpenGLES and Dear ImGUI, and a batch mode for high resolution images and zoom sequences, with optional export of raw data in EXR format compatible with Kalles Fraktaler 2 + and zoomasm.

help

Output of fraktaler-3 --help:

usage:

 fraktaler-3 [mode] [flags ...] [inputfile [inputfile ...]]

modes of operation:

 -h, --help                print this message and exit
 -V, --version             print version information and exit
 -i, --interactive         interactive graphical user interface
 -b, --batch               command line batch processing
 -W, --generate-wisdom     generate initial hardware configuration
 -B, --benchmark-wisdom    benchmark hardware for optimal efficiency
 -S, --export-source       export this program's source code

flags:

 -v, --verbose             increase verbosity
 -q, --quiet               decrease verbosity
 -p, --persistence file    path to persist state
 -P, --no-persistence      don't persist state
 -w, --wisdom file         path to wisdom

input files are merged in command line order The help text will list the default locations for persistence and wisdom files on your system, as well as the file name for the --export-source option.

Multiple parameter files may be specified on the command line. After persistence is loaded, they are merged in order (later files override earlier files). This allows you to keep different aspects of parameters in different files.

transformations

The exponential map feature is not so useful in the graphical program, but can be used in the command line version for rendering a zoom out sequence for later assembly into a video using zoomasm
