About the Project

Built with ❤️ for students and novice programmers, this tool is more than just a visualizer - it's your companion in the exciting journey of learning and understanding a fundamental concept in computer science and a stepping stone into the universe of algorithmic thinking. Whether you're a student grappling with the basics or a new programmer sharpening your skills, visualizing these algorithms can transform abstract concepts into tangible understanding.

Features:

Visualize Sorting Algorithms: Experience algorithms like Bubble Sort, Merge Sort, Quick Sort, under the hood!

Future Updates: We're not stopping here! Planned future updates include Visualizing List and Tree Traversals.

Getting Started:
