Visualization of my Advent of Code solution for 2024, day 18, part 2. Different colors represent connected components, where a node is connected to both its orthogonal and diagonal neighbors. The algorithm stops when it finds a single connected component that connects two or more boundaries, except two edge cases that do not block movement - can you guess which two? :)

While this site doesn't provide GIF conversion at the moment, you can still do it yourself with the help of asciinema GIF generator utility - agg.

Once you have it installed, generate a GIF with the following command:

agg https://asciinema.org/a/695417 demo.gif

Or, if you already downloaded the recording file:

agg demo.cast demo.gif

Check agg --help for all available options. You can change font family and size, select color theme, adjust speed and more.

See agg manual for full usage instructions.
