After being wowed by some of the coding CW&T did in their counter project I searched thru their sight to see if I could find anything to talk about for this week and I did.
The Grass app. An app that attempts to recreate a small patch of grass right on your phone screen that in their words you can “pet, coddle, pat, touch, and caress” the grass to help you “think calm soothing thoughts”.
They don’t talk about the specific coding of the app but I believe they use some sort of algorithm to believably reproduce their grass graphic across the screen and have it react to your aforementioned interactions. From reviews and from my own use of the app I thunk the id an awesome job, even though the graphic is simple the interaction is done so well it does make it very relaxing to play with.
