game-of-life-dart

My goal is to create an extended version of Conway's Game of Live in the Dart programming language as a terminal based application. In my simulation, the grid is wrapping around.

Currently one can run the project with dart run in the terminal. This starts the Game of life which you can stop by pressing q.
