## What it is
A curated list of resources on digital morphogenesis - creating natural forms and patterns with code. It links to articles, code repos, books, software, and projects covering growth algorithms like reaction-diffusion, L-systems, and differential growth.

## Use cases
- learn growth algorithms for generative art
- find resources on reaction-diffusion simulation
- study procedural pattern formation in nature
- explore L-systems and space colonization algorithms
- find creative coding projects on emergent form
- research computational models of biological growth

## When to choose
- you want a curated starting point for digital morphogenesis topics
- you are exploring generative or nature-inspired algorithms
- you need links across articles, code, books, and software in one place

## When to avoid
- you need a ready-to-use library or implementation
- you want maintained software rather than reference links
- you need a formal textbook or course

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: simulation, graphics, developer-tools
- domain: simulation, graphics, tutorials, awesome-lists
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: digital-morphogenesis, procedural-generation, growth-algorithms, pattern-formation, creative-coding, curated-list, algorithms
