Plant generator

Plant Generator

Plant Generator generates plant geometry. The project is divided into a generator and editor component. The generator is licensed under the Apache License (version 2.0) and the editor is licensed under the GPL 3.0. The editor depends on Qt6, but the project can be partially built without a GUI. Both components depend on Boost for serialization and parsing command line arguments, but Boost is not a critical component of the program.

Design Document

The design document is intended to provide some intuition on how the program works.

plant-generator's Issues

Linker Tools Error 2001

Hello!I configured the environment according to your tutorial, when I ran your code, "LNK 2001 error" occurred. My environment is vs2017(v141)，boost_1_75_0.I think there may be some inconsistency between boost library versions. What is your Boost version?
