Remarkably simple with great results. I recommend checking out the author’s book Mazes for Programmers: one of the best programming books I’ve ever read. Incredibly clearly explained, and very interesting, which is an excellent combination.

I was about to comment the same. Very good book, reading it and implementing its mazes with my own features on top has been my long term casual project for a while.

I posted some examples on Mastodon. I added several features, one being running the algorithms “by step” so that not only can it be easier to debug but it can be animated too.

		Very nice! Running by step is a fantastic idea, I might steal that for my own implementations :) I also liked the idea of finding the two furthest-apart points within the maze to use as start and end points. My app just picks two opposite corners. Completely arbitrary. I was never satisfied with it. Yours is much better.
