One reason I prefer having web pages instead of videos or academic papers is that they're easy to update over time. I'm still updating pages I wrote over 20 years ago.
Yesterday I was reviewing the Tower Defense page (2014) and decided the gap between the diagram at the top:
and the next diagram:
was too large. The first diagram explains the end goal. The second diagram explains the “frontier”. But why do we need the frontier? It's because we're trying to generate a distance or vector field. I decided to add a diagram in between that shows a distance field:
I think the page flows a little better now but it still needs more work. Since I'm working with a web page and not a video or academic paper, there's no need to wait until everything is finished; I can update the page as I come up with improvements. Take a look at the updated Tower Defense page and let me know what you think!
