Five concrete examples of the Fractal Tree Generator in real use. Each one shows the situation, what you put in and what comes out, so you can copy the structure, swap in your details and adapt it this week.

Example 1: Sketching a branch structure for a design

The task: Sketching a branch structure for a design. You start from the branch angle, recursion depth, decay factor and trunk length you want to draw with.. The tool returns a branching tree image that splits at every level, with each new pair of branches shorter and thinner than the one above it., giving you a self-similar tree you can tune by nudging a few parameters. you can edit rather than a blank page.

Make it yours: add one detail the tool cannot know - a real number, a name, a constraint - then read the result once end to end before you keep it.

Example 2: Studying recursion with a visual example

The task: Studying recursion with a visual example. You start from the branch angle, recursion depth, decay factor and trunk length you want to draw with.. The tool returns a branching tree image that splits at every level, with each new pair of branches shorter and thinner than the one above it., giving you a self-similar tree you can tune by nudging a few parameters. you can edit rather than a blank page.

Make it yours: add one detail the tool cannot know - a real number, a name, a constraint - then read the result once end to end before you keep it.

Example 3: Generating tree artwork for a poster

The task: Generating tree artwork for a poster. You start from the branch angle, recursion depth, decay factor and trunk length you want to draw with.. The tool returns a branching tree image that splits at every level, with each new pair of branches shorter and thinner than the one above it., giving you a self-similar tree you can tune by nudging a few parameters. you can edit rather than a blank page.

Make it yours: add one detail the tool cannot know - a real number, a name, a constraint - then read the result once end to end before you keep it.

Example 4: Tweaking angles to explore canopy shapes

The task: Tweaking angles to explore canopy shapes. You start from the branch angle, recursion depth, decay factor and trunk length you want to draw with.. The tool returns a branching tree image that splits at every level, with each new pair of branches shorter and thinner than the one above it., giving you a self-similar tree you can tune by nudging a few parameters. you can edit rather than a blank page.

Make it yours: add one detail the tool cannot know - a real number, a name, a constraint - then read the result once end to end before you keep it.

Example 5: Comparing depth levels for a class demo

The task: Comparing depth levels for a class demo. You start from the branch angle, recursion depth, decay factor and trunk length you want to draw with.. The tool returns a branching tree image that splits at every level, with each new pair of branches shorter and thinner than the one above it., giving you a self-similar tree you can tune by nudging a few parameters. you can edit rather than a blank page.

A Full Worked Example

Input: Angle 25 degrees, depth 10, decay 0.7

A full branching tree drawn from one trunk over ten recursion levels.

The pattern behind every example above: context and constraints go in, structure comes out, and your edit makes it true.

How to Build Your Own Examples

  1. Take a task already on your calendar for this week.
  2. Write the brief in two sentences: the job and the audience.
  3. Generate, compare against the version you would have written manually.
  4. Save the prompt alongside the result so the second run takes seconds.

Getting More From Each Example

Most people stop at the first result. Generate a second version with one changed variable - length, tone or angle - and compare. The better version usually appears on the second run, not the first.

Frequently Asked Questions

What do the angle and depth control?

The angle sets how far each branch turns from its parent, and the depth sets how many times the branching rule repeats.

What does the decay factor do?

It scales every new pair of branches, so a value under 1 makes each level shorter than the last.

Why does my tree fill the screen?

A decay too close to 1 keeps branches nearly full size - lower it so higher levels shrink into place.

Is my tree saved anywhere?

No - it is drawn in your browser and nothing is stored once you leave the page.
